Molecular dynamics investigations on ferrocenes by means of dielectric relaxation measurements. Part I. Formyl, carboxyl, and 1,1'-dichloro derivatives

Abstract

Dielectric spectra, of formyl-, carboxyl-, and 1, 1'-dichloro-ferrocene have been examined in benzene in the frequency range of 100 MHz– 26 GHz, at various temperatures. In these conditions only one clear dielectric absorption band has been observed and a Debye-type behaviour has been found. Calculation of the macroscopic dielectric relaxation times and the thermodynamic parameters has also been performed.
