Tris(1,10-phenanthroline-²N,N')iron(II) dichloride methanol hexasolvate

L. Aparici Plaza, K. Baranowska and B. Becker

Abstract: The title complex, [Fe(C₁₂H₈N₂)₃]Cl₂·6CH₃OH, contains a slightly distorted octahedral [Fe(phen)₃]²⁺ cation (phen is 1,10-phenanthroline). Chloride anions and solvent methanol molecules form two distinct hydrogen-bonded anionic clusters, formulated as [Cl(MeOH)₂]^- and [Cl(MeOH)₄]^-, which complete the crystal structure.
