Abstract
This work presents an electrochemical study of enhanced electronic communication based on intermolecular hydrogen-bonding in ferrocenemethanol (described as FcCH2OH) molecular clusters. The enhanced electronic communication in FcCH2OH clusters is confirmed and further investigated by differential-pulse voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry. A key finding is that this enhanced electronic communication increases the standard rate constant of the electron transfer process. These results will provide us with a further understanding of the electronic communication within the ferrocenyl derivatives which is based on the intermolecular hydrogen-bonding.
