Abstract
We describe the design and synthesis of ferrocene dimers and trimers bridged by an oligothiophene spacer as both cathodic and anodic multiple redox-active organic–organometallic hybrid molecules. The electrochemical properties of all compounds were examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The voltammograms showed different multi-step, multi-electron redox reactions derived from multi-ferrocene fragments and the organic spacer. The results indicate that a number of thiophene rings in the spacer can be attuned to the redox potentials and the electron-transfer processes.
