Product Information

• Name: Ferrocenecarboxaldehyde
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Ferrocenecarboxaldehyde is a fatty acid with a ferrocene carboxylic acid group. It has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against bacteria, fungi, and yeast when it was mixed with nitric acid. Ferrocenecarboxaldehyde can be synthesized by reacting ferrocene with glycerol in the presence of sulfuric acid. The reaction mechanism of this synthesis is as follows: The structural analysis of ferrocenecarboxaldehyde has been studied using FT-IR spectroscopy and NMR spectroscopy. The chemical structure of ferrocenecarboxaldehyde is as follows: The asymmetric synthesis of ferrocenecarboxaldehyde is shown below:
