An unsymmetrical diferrocene diamide has been reacted with chloride ions. The anion splits the intramolecular hydrogen bond of the receptor and is coordinated simultaneously by both amide groups of the receptor via hydrogen bonds. Chloride coordination changes the relative angular position of the cyclopentadienyl rings and the potential of the ferrocene/ferricinium redox couple. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
