Abstract: Poly(ferrocenyldimethylsilane) and poly(ferrocenylmethylphenylsilane) have been prepared via the thermal ring-opening polymerization of the corresponding strained, silicon-bridged ferrocenophanes. It was found that the molecular weights of resultant polymers depend on the polymerization time. Their electrochemical behavior in aqueous electrolytes was investigated by cyclic voltammetry.
