Abstract

A series of bulky ring-substituted ferrocenes [η5-C5Me4(p-C6H4Y)]2Fe (Y = H, Me, OMe, F, Cl or CF3) or (Cpxpy)2Fe has been synthesized and studied by 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy at different temperatures. The hyperfine parameters for all the samples are almost identical, except for Y = H, (Cpxph)2Fe, where the quadrupole splitting (QS) is significantly larger. The X-ray crystal structure was determined for (Cpxph)2Fe, (Cpxpcl)2Fe and (Cpxpom)2Fe. Two different orientations of the C6H4Y rings are observed in the molecular structures; a perpendicular one for (Cpxph)2Fe and a parallel one for (Cpxpcl)2Fe and (Cpxpom)2Fe. However, this structural difference is not reflected in a study on the temperature dependency of the recoil free fraction of these three ferrocenes.
