Abstract

Abstract The intramolecular electronic communication and multilevel ion-pairing effect of triferrocenylmethane (TriFcM) in organic phase was studied with the “thin-layer electrochemistry” approach. Three pairs of symmetric peaks in cyclic voltammetry of TriFcM correspond to three one-electron electrochemical reaction processes and indicate strong intramolecular electronic communication, which could be used to study the multilevel ion-pairing effect. Three different formation constants of ion-pairs between the three ferroceniums of TriFcM and perchlorate in thin organic film were obtained and compared.
