A new family of supramolecular multiferrocenyl rhomboids: Synthesis, characterization, and their electrochemical behavior

Two novel, supramolecular, multiferrocenyl rhomboids 5 and 6 have been successfully constructed from newly designed 60° ferrocenyl donor precursor 1via coordination-driven self-assembly. The structures of all multiferrocenyl rhomboids were characterized by multinuclear NMR (1H and 31P), CSI–TOF-MS, and PM6 semi-empirical molecular simulation, and their electrochemical behaviors have been investigated.
