中文摘要：

二茂铁具有独特的夹心刚性结构,炔基具有刚性和线性,茂铁基与炔基的结合使得二茂铁炔基具有两者的优点,成为用途广泛的刚性构筑块,而且茂铁炔基因体系扩展的π-π电子离域产生了分子导线效应。本文介绍了近几年来茂铁炔基在分子导线、分子开关、分子马达、化学传感器、非线性光学材料、催化剂等光电功能材料领域的研究进展。

英文摘要：

Ferrocene has many attractive features, such as excellent reversible redox properties, high solubility in organic media, and high modifiability with organic chemical methods, and it remains a promising molecular fragment for molecular devices. Alkynyl has rigidity and linearity. The combination of the two make ferroceneacetylene has delocalized ~-bond as a versatile building block. So it has been widely used in the design and synthesis of optoelectronic functional molecule. The review focuses on the structures and applications of molecules containing ferroceneacetylene in molecular wire, molecular switch, molecular rotor, chemosensing, nonlinnear optics, catalyst, photochromism and so on in recent years.
