A new assembly containing [Fe(dien)2]2+ and [Ni(CN)4]2− ions

Journal of Chemical Crystallography Aims and scope Submit manuscript

A tetracyanometallate with complex dien cation [Fe(dien)2][Ni(CN)4] (1) (dien = diethylenetriamine), has been prepared and characterized by IR, UV-Vis and ESR spectroscopies. Single crystal X-ray analysis reveals that the compound assumes a ‘zero-dimensional’ structure in which one iron(II) ion is coordinated by six nitrogen atoms of the two dien ligands and the [Ni(CN)4]2− anion remains outside the coordination sphere. The six-coordinate iron(II) centres display a distorted octahedral arrangement.
