A long-standing issue about the correct identification of an important starting reagent, iron(III) hexa­fluoro­acetyl­acetonate, Fe(hfac)3 (1), has been resolved. The tris-chelated mononuclear com­plex was found to crystallize in two polymorph modifications which can be assigned as the low-tem­per­a­ture (1-L) monoclinic P21/n and the high-tem­per­a­ture (1-H) trigonal P\overline{3}. Low-tem­per­a­ture polymorph 1-L was found to transform to 1-H upon sublimation at 44 °C. Two modifications are clearly distinguished by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), single-crystal X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and melting-point measurements. On the other hand, the two forms share similar characteristics in direct analysis in real-time mass spectrometry (DART-MS), attenuated total reflection (ATR) spectroscopy, and some physical properties, such as color, volatility, sensitivity, and solubility. Analysis of the literature and some of our preliminary data strongly suggest that the appearance of two polymorph modifications for trivalent metal (both transition and main group) hexa­fluoro­acetyl­acetonates is a common case for several largely used com­plexes not yet accounted for in the crystallographic databases.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Special details top

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refined as a 2-component twin.
