Anisotropy Effects of Conjugated Cyclic Systems, VI. Structure and Magnetic Anisotropy of Mesityl-substituted FerrocenesTwo isomeric ferrocene derivatives have been obtained from 2-(2-ethyl-4,6-dimethylphenyl)-1,3-dimethylcyclopentadiene (22a). The exo,exo- (9) as well as the endo,endo-configuration (10) of these were determined by X-ray structure analysis. The assignment of the 1H NMR signals of the methyl groups in the spectrum of 1,1′,3,3′-tetramethyl-2,2′-dimesitylferrocene (7) is derived from the spectra of 9 and 10. Signals of methyl groups in exo-position of the mesitylferrocene are shifted by -0.74 ppm to higher magnetic field. Signals of methyl groups in endo-position directed towards the iron atom are shifted downfield by +0.71 ppm. Therefore, ferrocene develops a diamagnetic anisotropy which is similar to that of benzene.
Notes:
Aus 2-(2-Ethyl-4,6-dimethylphenyl)-1,3-dimethylcyclopentadien (22a) werden zwei isomere Ferrocenderivate erhalten. Durch Röntgenstrukturanalysen wird deren exo,exo-(9) bzw. endo,endo-Konfiguration (10) bestimmt. Anhand der 1H-NMR-Spektren dieser Ferrocene ist die Zuordnung der Methylgruppensignale im 1H-NMR-Spektrum des 1,1′,3,3′-Tetramethyl-2,2′-dimesitylferrocens (7) bewiesen. Signale von Methylgruppen in exo-Stellung des Mesitylferrocens werden um -0.74 ppm nach hohem Magnetfeld und solche von zum Eisenatom gerichteten in endo-Stellung um +0.71 ppm nach tiefem Feld verschoben. Daraus leitet sich für Ferrocen eine dem Benzol ähnliche diamagnetische Anisotropieverteilung ab.
