Özet:N,N̕-bis(ferrocenylmethylene)ethylenediamine was prepared from the reaction of ferrocenecarboxaldehyde and ethylenediamine and characterized by IR, Raman, 1H and 13C-NMR spectroscopy. The electrochemical behaviour of this ligand was also studied for the first time by cyclic voltammetry. Diferrocenyl diimine ligand was used in the thermal substitution of 1,5-cyclooctadiene in Cr(CO)4(2:2-1,5-cyclooctadiene) at 38°C in toluene for two hours to form the tetracarbonyl[N,N̕-bis(ferrocenylmethylene)ethylenediamine]chromium(0), [Cr(CO)4(BFEDA)]. This complex was succesfully isolated and crystallized from its 1:1 toluene/dichloromethane solution and characterized by elemental analysis, MS, IR, 1H, 13C-NMR spectroscopy. Electrochemical behaviour of the complex was also studied by cyclic voltammetry and the mechanism of electrode reaction was investigated by in-situ UV-VIS and IR spectroscopy measurements. This new complex has the iron atom of ferrocene unit in conjugation with the chromium metal center and, therefore, shows an electronic communication between two metal atoms.
