Abstract

Coming full circle: Cyclic ferrocenylsilane oligomers (see structure) and polymers were prepared by the photolytic ring opening of a silicon-bridged [1]ferrocenophane with a bipyridine initiator. The relative amounts of cyclic oligomers and cyclic polymer, as well as the molecular weight of the cyclic polymer, can be controlled by the reaction temperature.
