Abstract: The title compound {systematic name: bis[2-(tert-butyliminomethyl)phenolato-²N,O]iron(II)}, [Fe(C₁₁H₁₄NO)₂], was synthesized by the reaction of tetrakis(trimethylphosphine)iron(0) and N-tert-butylsalicylaldimine in pentane. The Fe^II atom exhibits a distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry.
