Conclusions
-
1.
The first step of the electrochemical reduction of ferrocenophanones and ferrocenophanediones is the formation of radical-anions.
-
2.
6,6-Di(cyanomethyl)-[3]-ferrocenophane and bis[(6-cyanomethyl)-[3]-ferrocenophan-6-yl] are formed in the electrochemical reduction of [3]-ferrocenophan-6-one.
-
3.
6,6-Di(cyanomethyl)- and 6-(cyanomethyl)[3](1,1′)[3](3,3′) ferrocenophanes are formed in the electrochemical reduction of [3](1,1′)[3](3,3)-ferrocenophan-6-one.
