The poly(ferrocenylethylene)s [Fe(η-C5H3RCH2)2]n 5a and 5b (a: R = H, b: R = Me) have been prepared by thermal ring-opening polymerization of the corresponding strained hydrocarbon-bridged [2]ferrocenophanes [Fe(η-C5-H3RCH2)2] (4a and 4b). An X-ray diffraction study of 4a indicated significant strain. Polymer 5a was crystalline and insoluble in common organic solvents and was characterized by solid-state 13C NMR. Polymer 5b, which was soluble in organic solvents, was characterized by 1H and 13C NMR, UV/visible spectroscopy and elemental analysis. Its molecular weight distribution was bimodal (gel permeation chromatography: Mw = 9.6 × 104, Mn = 8.6 × 104 for the high molecular weight fraction, Mw = 4.8 × 103, Mn = 3.5 × 103 for the oligomeric fraction), suggesting two polymerization mechanisms. The UV/visible spectrum implied a localized structure for the polymer backbone. Cyclic voltammetry revealed that 5b undergoes two reversible oxidations in CH2Cl2 solution at-0.25 and-0.16V. The redox coupling is indicative of only a small degree of interaction between the iron centres. Thermogravimetric analysis indicated that 5a and 5b are thermally stable to ca. 300-350°C under N2. At higher temperatures they yield ferromagnetic iron carbide ceramics 6a and 6b (ca. 50% and 32%, respectively, at 600°C) together with molecular depolymerization products. The reaction of 5b with tetracyanoethylene (TCNE) yielded insoluble and soluble oxidized products 11 and 12, which differed in the degree of oligomerization of the TCNEy-x counterions. These products were characterized by IR, elemental analysis, ESR spectroscopy, and magnetic susceptibility measurements. The last revealed the presence of significant antiferromagnetic interactions in 12.
