DEVELOPMENT OF O-(2`-CARBOXYFERROCENYL)BENZOIC ACID: SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION

Abstract

This article explores the aromatic properties of ferrocene, emphasizing its significance in organometallic chemistry. Through the diazotization reaction of ferrocenecarboxylic acid with o-aminobenzoic acid, we synthesized a novel compound, o-(2`-carboxyferrocenyl) benzoic acid. The structure of the synthe-sized acid was thoroughly characterized and analyzed using IR spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The results provide valuable insights into the molecular ar-chitecture and potential applications of this new organometallic compound.
