Abstract

The design and synthesis of a new family of multiferrocene complexes with enhanced control of structure and stoichimetry via coordination-driven self-assembly is described. Insight into the structure and electronic properties of all supramolecules was obtained by electrochemical studies. The collective results provide an enhanced understanding of the influence of structural factors on the electrochemistry of multifunctional electroactive supramolecular architectures.
