(R)-2-Methylpiperazine-1,4-diium diaquatetrachloridoferrate(II)
Abstract
In the title salt, (C5H14N2)[FeCl4(H2O)2], the FeII cation is coordinated by four Cl− anions and two water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry. The piperazine ring adopts a normal chair conformation. Intermolecular N—H...Cl, N—H...(Cl,Cl) and O—H...Cl hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure.
