 Ferrocene units have been attached to inorganic polymer backbones as well and generally polymers with pendant ferrocene units show unusual electronic properties endowed by the the redox activity of the metal.<ref>{{cite journal|first1=Rudolf |last1=Pietschnig |title=Polymers with pendant ferrocenes.|journal=[[Chemical Society Reviews|Chem.

===As a ligand scaffold===
Chiral ferrocenyl [[phosphine]]s are employed as ligands for transition-metal catalyzed reactions. Some of them have found industrial applications in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. For example, the [[diphosphines|diphosphine]] [[1,1'-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene|1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene]] (dppf) is a valuable ligand for [[palladium]]-[[coupling reaction]]s.
