The redox properties of ferrocenyl-substituted aryl azines
Bibliographic record
Abstract
A series of ferrocenyl substituted azines (1-Fc/Ar, where Ar = 4-NO2C6H4, 4-CNC6H4, 4-OCH3C6H4, C5H4N, ferrocene, anthracene, and pyrene) were investigated by electrochemical and photochemical techniques. All the 1-Fc/Ar exhibited oxidation waves within 60 mV of each other, consistent with the expected oxidation of the ferrocene moiety. The reduction properties of 1-Fc/Ar is governed by the nature of the Ar substituent. The standard reduction potentials suggest that ferrocene has comparable electron donating abilities as a 4-methoxyphenyl and 4-dimethyl aminophenyl group. The anthracenyl azines exhibit one-electron reversible reduction followed by dimerization of the radical anion resulting in dimerization rate constants (kd) between 5.1 × 104 and 1.5 × 105 M1 s1. 1-Fc/Anth and related azines undergo photochemical E/Z isomerization of the C=N bonds to produce E/Z and Z/Z isomers from the thermodynamically most stable E/E form. Fluorescence at 77 K, was observed for these compounds only after long- wavelength irradiation to produce a mixture of E/E, E/Z, and Z/Z isomers. Fluorescence quantum yields of 0.042, 0.090, and 0.176 were determined for 2-Anth/H, 2-Anth/Anth, and 1-Fc/Anth, respectively. The electrochemical, photochemical, and X-ray data suggest that the azine unit is a conjugation "limiter" and may be a general characteristic of azine molecules.Key words: azines, electrochemistry, cyclic voltammetry, reduction, electron transfer.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
