Crystal and molecular structure of an octahedral iron(III) complex with a sulphur-containing Schiff-base ligand: bis(2-aminoethylthiosalicylideneiminato)iron(III) chloride
Abstract
The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound (1) has been determined from diffractometer data by three-dimensional Patterson and Fourier methods and refined by block-diagonal least-squares to R 0·077 for 1302 independent non-zero reflections. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P2l/c, with a= 8·75(1), b= 21·92(2), c= 11·07(1)Å, β= 114·0(2)°, and Z= 4. The iron atom is octahedrally co-ordinated by two terdentate Schiff-base ligands, with Fe–S(1) 2·21 (1), Fe–N(1)(amine) 2·08(3), Fe–N(2)(imine) 1·93(2)Å; Fe⋯Cl– is 4·51 (1)Å.
