Abstract: In the title compound, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₁₁H₁₀NO)], the dihedral angle between the pyridyl and substituted cyclopentadienyl rings is 20.4 (3)°. The H atoms of the methyl group are disordered over two positions; their site-occupation factors were fixed at 0.5. The crystal structure is stabilized by well defined intermolecular O-HN and C-HO hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of a two-dimensional network parallel to (101).
