Dicarbonyldichloridobis(trimethylphosphane)iron(II)–carbonyldichloridotris(trimethylphosphane)iron(II)–tetrahydrofuran (1/1/2)

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title crystal, [FeCl2(C3H9P)3(CO)]·[FeCl2(C3H9P)2(CO)2]·2C4H8O, contains half molecules of the two closely related FeII complexes lying on mirror planes and a tetrahydrofuran solvent molecule, one C atom of which is disordered over two sets of sites with site occupancy factors 0.633 (9) and 0.367 (9). In both FeII complex molecules, a distorted octahedral coordination geometry has been observed around the Fe atoms. Weak intermolecular C—H...O interactions are observed in the crystal structure.
