Ferrocenylmethylene‐bridged calix[4]azulene derivative 3 and bis(1‐azulenyl)ferrocenylmethane derivative 4 were obtained by the reaction of 6‐ tert ‐butylazulene ( 6 ) with ferrocenecarbaldehyde ( 7 ) in acetic acid. The new bis(1‐azulenyl)ferrocenylmethylium ion 5 + was also generated by the hydride abstraction reaction of the corresponding hydro derivative 4 with DDQ. The novel ferrocene‐substituted calix[4]azulene derivative 3 exhibit a reversible one‐step multi‐electron oxidation upon cyclic voltammetry.(© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
