Application

Iron(III) perchlorate hydrate is a useful starting material for the synthesis of a tris-salicylate Fe(III) complex having bidentate chelating units and in photolysis of ferrioxalate in presence of polyoxometalate in aqueous solution.

It can be used as a catalyst for synthesis of:
  • Fullerene-fused lactones
  • α-Carbonyl furans via one-pot cyclization
  • Fullerodioxolanes via heterocyclization
  • Fulleroxazolidines
  • Dialylated indoles via double alkylation
  • Aryl esters via oxidative esterification

Useful starting material for the synthesis of a tris-salicylate Fe(III) complex having bidentate chelating units which allow two coordination modes.
Catalyst for synthesis of:
  • Fullerene-fused lactones
  • α-Carbonyl furans via one-pot cyclization
  • Fullerodioxolanes via heterocyclization
