Synthesis and crystal structure of a novel mixed valence iron compound, ((/eta//sup 5/-cyclopentadienyl)(/eta//sup 6/-tetralin)Fe(II))/sub 3/(Fe(III)(NCS)/sub 6/)

Journal Article ·
OSTI ID:6048504

The title compound was encountered in the course of preparing ((/eta//sup 5/-C/sub 5/H/sub 5/)(/eta//sup 6/-C/sub 10/H/sub 12/)Fe)SCN from ((/eta//sup 5/-C/sub 5/H/sub 5/)(/eta//sup 6/-C/sub 10/H/sub 12/)Fe)PF/sub 6/. The mixed valence iron compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2/sub 1//c with four formula unite per unit cell. There are three crystallographically independent cations and two anions (each residing on a center of inversion) in the asymmetric unit. Lattice constants are a = 17.231(7), b = 18.167(6), c = 16.572(7) /angstrom/, and /beta/ = 97.86(4)/degree/. 23 references, 1 figure, 4 tables.
