Gas phase vapor diffusion reactions upon sublimation of ferrocenes onto solid powders and thin films of multinuclear coinage metal azolates resulted in an instant color change and luminescence quenching of the latter due to formation of binary adducts that exhibit polymorphism. Crystallographic, photophysical, vibrational spectroscopic, electrochemical, and thermogravimetric analysis data will be presented to extract the relative reactivities upon each structural variation and the experimental results will be correlated with previously-made theoretical predictions.
