Vinylferrocene (CAS No.: 1271-51-8) is a ferrocene derivative containing a vinyl functional group, combining the stability of the ferrocene structure with the reactivity of a carbon–carbon double bond. This unique structure allows it to act as a functional monomer in advanced material synthesis.
It is mainly used in the production of high-performance polymers and copolymers, conductive and functional resins, photoelectric materials, and energetic material formulations. It is also applied as a combustion catalyst additive to improve energy release efficiency and performance in specialty chemical systems.
