New polyferrocene bis benzo-15-crown-5 ligands have been prepared and shown to form 1:1 intramolecular sandwich complexes with the potassium cation.Electrochemical investigations reveal that both receptors undergo small anodic perturbations of the respective ferrocene-ferrocenium redox couples in the presence of alkali metal cations.
