Abstract

The quaternary ammonium salt (ferrocenylmethyl)trimethylammonium iodide 4 containing an amminomethyl group has been prepared by the amminomethylation of ferrocene 1 with the Mannich reagent followed by quaternisation with iodomethane. The obtained tertiary ammine 3 and its methiodide 4 have been characterized by FTIR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR. Their electrochemical behaviours have been investigated by cyclic voltammetry, indicating that the quaternary salt 4 exhibit reversible one-electron oxidations of the ferrocene moiety, which is influenced by the aminomethyl group introduced to the ferrocene centre. The same remakes were observed even at slow scan rates.
