The photochemistry of azaferrocene and its derivatives
TL;DRAbstract
Chapter one contains a literature survey of the relevant organometallic chemistry and the current understanding of the bonding in these systems, along with a theoretical description of the electronic structure of ferrocene. A brief outline of the techniques used to characterise the photochemical intermediates in this research is presented. The main part of the chapter consists of a literature review of the photo and thermal chemistry o f half sandwich complexes, such as the rj6-arene-chromium tricarbonyl system.\n\nChapter two opens with a review of the photochemistry of ferrocene, (^-CsHs^Fe and goes on to detail the results of the investigation into the photochemistry of azaferrocene, (775-C5H5)(775-GiH4N)Fe. The photochemistry of azaferrocene is then described in alkane solvents at room temperature using both steady-state photolysis and laser flash photolysis. The matrix photochemistry monitored by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is a
