Metallopolymers contain multiple redox-active centers, which allow extra control of their intriguing properties. Ferrocene polymers are particularly attractive in this regard, but research of the iconic poly(1,1'-ferrocenylene), a main-chain ferrocene polymer with the most densely bound redox active iron centers, has practically stopped because it is an insoluble and rather inhomogeneous material. Herein, its synthesis on the Ag(111) surface is reported, based on the Ullmann coupling of 1',1-diiodo‐1,1‐biferrocene.
