Wholesale Price Ferrocene CAS 102-54-5 Ferrocene Powder
Physical and chemical properties
Ferrocene is also known as "iron". A sandwich metal compound. Molecular formula (C5H5)2Fe or C10H10Fe. Molecular weight 186.04. Light yellow or brown acicular crystal with a camphor odor. Melting point 172.5 ~ 173ºC, boiling point 249ºC. Sublimation above 100ºC, heating to 400ºC does not decompose. Stable to bases and non-oxidizing acids. Soluble in dilut, concentrated sulfuric acid, alcohol, ether, benzene, petroleum and , insoluble in water and solution. Dissolved in dilute and concentrated sulfuric acid to form a deep red solution with blue fluorescence. It is very stable to heat, ultraviolet light, air, acid, alkali, etc., such as heating to 400ºC without change, but sensitive to oxidants.
Although ferrocene is not oxidized by air at room temperature, it can be oxidized to ferrocene cation by air in solution. Ferrocene is a typical non-benzene aromatic compound, which can undergo typical electrophilic substitution reactions such as sulfonation, acylation and alkylation. It can also form charge transfer complex. The ultraviolet spectra of ethanol have great absorption values at 325nm and 440nm. It can be prepared in the presence of by reacting ferrous chloride with in as a solvent, or by removing the protons with in dimethoxy and dimethylsulfoxide solvents and then reacting with hydrated ferrous chloride. Used as UV absorbent, catalyst, rocket fuel additive, seismic agent, silicone resin and rubber curing agent.
Chemical properties:
orange acicular crystal. Melting point 172.5-173ºC, sublimation above 100ºC, boiling point 249ºC. Dissolved in dilute , concentrated sulfuric acid, benzene, ether, in diluteand concentrated sulfuric acid to produce blue fluorescent dark red solution. Does not melt in water, 10% and hot concentrated, the boiling liquid of these solvents, ferrocene is neither dissolved nor decomposed, can volatilize with water vapor, has a smell similar to camphor, stable in the air, has a strong absorption of ultraviolet light, is quite stable to heat, can withstand 470ºC high temperature heating.
Function
1, ferrocene can be used as fuel energy saving and smoke elimination agent, anti-violence agent.
2, can also be used to produce rubber curing agent.
3, It can replace the poisonous tetraethylene as anti-riot agent to prepare high-grade.
4, Used as radiation absorber, heat stabilizer, light stabilizer and smoke inhibitor.
