H. Y. Xia and Y. L. Liu

Abstract: In the title complex, [Fe₂Cl₂(C₁₁H₁₆N₄)₄][FeCl₄]₂, the asymmetric unit is composed of one and a half units of [Fe(bdmpm)₂Cl]₂(FeCl₄)₂(bdmpm = bis(bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane). The three independent Fe^II atom have a distorted octahedral coordination geometry comprising two bridging chloride anions and four N atoms from two bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands. The Fe^III atom has a tetrahedral coordination geometry comprising four chloride anions.
