Fc-Fc Electronic interaction through equatorial pathways of a diruthenium core.
Diruthenium compounds bearing one (3) and two (4) ferrocene carboxylate ligands were prepared and characterized, and the electronic coupling between two equatorially adjacent Fc centers in compound 4 is significant, but weaker than those between Fc centers placed on the opposite axial sites.
