In the title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C11H13N4)], the triazolyl and Cp ring form a dihedral angle of 76.6 (3)°. In the crystal structure, there are both intra- and intermolecular C-H
interactions, forming a one-dimensional chain structure along [010].
Acetylferrocene (1 mmol) was dissolved in anhydrous toluene (40 ml) and 3,5-dimethyl-4-amino-4H-1,2,4-triazole (1.5 mmol) was added. The red solution was refluxed under argon atmosphere for about 3 days. Every day an addition of small quantities of activated Al2O3 was necessary to complete the reaction. The hot solution was carefully filtered, and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness in a rotary evaporator. The residue was purified by passing through a silica gel column with CH2Cl2 as eluent, giving the title compound, which was recrystallized from dichloromethane–petroleum ether solution at room temperature to give the desired product as colorless crystals suitable for single-crystal X-ray diffraction (yield 25%; m.p: 440 K-443 K). IR data (v_max/ cm-1): 1591, 1569, 1531, 1479, 1409, 1307, 1104, 1005, 827, 762. NMR δ(H) 4.87 (2H, s), 4.59 (2H, s), 4.25 (5H, s), 2.35 (6H, s), 2.07 (3H, s). MS-ESI+ [m/z]: 323 (M+H), 345 (M+Na), 667 (2M+Na).
H atoms attached to C atoms of the title compound were placed in geometrically idealized positions and treated as riding with C—H distances constrained to 0.93–0.96 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) (1.5Ueq for methyl H).

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

During the past decades, we have systematically studied the cyclometallation reaction of Schiff base type of ferrocenylimines (Huo et al., 1994; Wu et al., 2001). Following these work, here we report the synthesis, characterization and crystal structure of the title ferrocenylimine ligand.
A view of the molecular structure of the title compound is given in Fig. 1. All the bond distances and angles are within normal ranges, the C11—N1 distance [1.290 (2) Å] is similar to those of the related complex (Hao et al., 2007) and the C11—N1—N2 angle is 115.15 (16)°. The triazolyl and Cp ring form a dihedral angle of 103.4 (3)°. Fig. 2 and Table 1 shows that in the crystal there exist intra- and intermolecular C—H···π interactions: H6···Cg1 = 2.519 Å [symmetry code for Cg1 (x, y, z), intra], and H5···Cg3 = 2.868 Å; symmetry code for Cg3 (x, -1/2 - y, -1/2 + z)]. Cg1 and Cg3 are the centroids of the triazolyl and one of the Cp rings C6–C10, respectively], which are attributed to construct the one-dimensional chain structure of the title compound. Partial stacking between neighbouring ferrocene units via inversion centres is shown in Fig. 3. The partial π–π stacking interactions are found between Cg2 and Cg2i [symmetry code i = (-x, -y, 2 - z)], with a distance 3.8525 (18) Å, the perpendicular distance is 3.295 Å with a slippage of 1.829 Å. Cg2 is the centroid of the Cp ring C1–C5.
