Abstract: This article presents a comprehensive chemistry experiment that involves the synthesis, photophysical and electrochemical characterization of ferrocenylphenyl derivatives. By integrating multiple characterization methods and test approaches, this experiment helps students learn fundamental college chemistry theory, basic laboratory skills, and academic research in the field of organometallics. UV-Visible spectroscopic and electrochemical methods were utilized to study the target compounds and compare the electron-donating and electron-withdrawing effects on the molecular spectrum via a quantitative computation methodology. Furthermore, it stimulates the creation of green chemistry values and sustainable development mindfulness while developing students’ scientific research and comprehensive experimental skills.

Key words: Ferrocenylphenyl derivatives, Aqueous synthesis, Photophysical, Electrochemistry, Quantum chemical calculation, Comprehensive chemistry experiment
