N-(4-Ferrocenylphenyl)-4-piperidino-1,8-naphthalimide

C. J. McAdam, B. H. Robinson and J. Simpson

Abstract: The title compound, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₂₈H₂₃N₂O₂)], contains a 1,8-naphthalimide system, substituted in the 4-position with an N-bound piperidine ring. The imide N atom of the naphthalimide group carries a 4-ferrocenylphenyl substituent. The compound crystallizes with the plane of the naphthalimide moiety orthogonal to those of the benzene and cyclopentadiene rings, which facilitates intermolecular stacking interactions between adjacent pairs of naphthalimide rings.
