Here, a ferrocenium dication salt, biphenyl bis [π-cyclopentadienyl）iron] hexafluorophosphate （[bis（Cp-Fe）-biphenyl] （PF6）2 was synthesized by the ligand exchange reaction between ferrocene and biphenyl. The chemical structure was characterized with FTIR and ^1HNMR. The separation of ferrocenium monocation cyclopentadien-iron-biphenyl hexafluorophosphate （[Cp-Fe-biphenyl] PF6） and dication [bis（Cp-Fe）-biphenyl] （PF6）2 was carried out by column chromatography. The photoactivity of initiating photopolyinerization of epoxide ER14221 was studied as a cationic photoinitiator. [Bis（Cp-Fe）-biphenyl] （PF6）2 can efficiently absorb radiation above 300nm and its photoactivity is higher than that of its monocation.展开更多

The results indicate that the observed electron paramagnetic resonance spectra are due to polycyclic aromatic radicals formed from the parent hydrocarbons. It is suggested that benzyl halides produced in the Friedel-Crafts alkylation reactions undergo Scholl self-condensation to give polycyclic aromatic hydrocar- bons, which are converted into corresponding polycyclic aromatic radical cations in the presence of AlCl3. The identification of observed two radicals 2,6-dimethylanthracene and 1,4,5,8-tetramethylanthraeene were supported by density functional theory calculations using the B3LYP/6-31G（d,p）//B3LYP/6-31G（d） approach. The theoretical coupling constants support the experimental assignment of the observed radicals.展开更多
