| Summary: | The synthesis and characterisation (UV-Vis, IR, HRESI-MS, <sup>1</sup>H and <sup>13</sup>C NMR spectroscopies, electrochemistry) is reported of the novel title material (<b>1</b>: alternatively named <i>rac</i>-1-(2′-benzothiazolyl)-2-ferrocenyl-2-propanol): a rare example of a ferrocenyl-benzothiazole hybrid species. Compound <b>1</b> is produced by the low temperature reaction of acetylferrocene (<b>3</b>) with a solution of the methyl anion derived via the deprotonation of 2-methyl-1,3-benzothiazole. The yield of <b>1</b> is moderate (34%) after purification and is an air and thermally stable solid under ambient conditions. Attempts to sublime <b>1</b>, however, result in decomposition with one of the products being identified (NMR) as <b>3</b>. The spectroscopic features of <b>1</b> are presented. Attempts to obtain suitable crystalline material of <b>1</b> for a single crystal X-ray diffraction study were unfortunately unsuccessful. Compound <b>1</b> also does not form stable coordination complexes with various metal salts (e.g., Ni[2+], Co[2+], etc.) under the conditions tested. |
