Ferrocene, (2-carboxyethyl)- - Introduction
Ferrocenyl propionic acid (ferrocenecarboxylic acid) is an organic compound, which is composed of two metallocene rings (I. e. ferrocene) connected by a carbon chain. Its chemical formula is C11H10FeO2.
Regarding the properties of ferrocenyl propionic acid, it is a solid with the morphology of reddish brown crystals. It has good thermal stability and chemical stability, and is not easy to decompose under conventional environmental conditions. It is poorly soluble in solvents but can be dissolved in organic solvents such as chloroform, ether and dichloromethane.
Ferrocenyl propionic acid is often used as a catalyst and transition metal starting material in organic synthesis. It can catalyze a series of organic reactions, such as oxidation, polymerization of olefins, etc. In addition, it can also be used as an active material for chemical batteries, and has application prospects in electrochemical energy storage and other fields.
The preparation method of ferrocenyl propionic acid can be obtained by reacting lithium metallocene with acid ferrous chloride. In the reaction, lithium metallocene reacts with acid ferrous chloride in toluene or ether solvent to form sodium ferrocene propionate, which is then neutralized with acid to give pure ferrocene propionic acid.
Regarding the safety information of ferrocene propionic acid, it should be noted that it is irritating to the skin and eyes, so you should avoid contact when using it. At the same time, it is also a combustible substance and needs to be stored away from the fire source, and care should be taken to avoid contact with oxidants. When using and storing, please observe the safe operation rules.
