Abstract: In the title compound, [Fe₂Zn(C₅H₅)₂(C₈H₉N₃S)₂]·CH₃OH, the dihedral angles between the substituted and unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl rings are 89.34 (8) and 85.73 (9)°, respectively. The two Zn/S/C/N/N five-membered rings adopt envelope conformations, with the Zn^II atom at the flap. Each methanol solvent molecule is linked to three ferrocene groups via intermolecular O-HN, N-HO and C-HO hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure is further consolidated by C-H interactions.
