The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe3(CH3COO)6O(H2O)3]NO3·CH3COOH, consists of a hexa-μ2-acetato-triaqua-μ3-oxo-triiron(III) macrocation, a nitrate ion and an acetic acid solvent molecule. In the cation, each Fe3+ ion is coordinated by four carboxylate O atoms, one central bridged O atom and one water molecule, resulting in distorted FeO6 octahedra. A network of O—H...O hydrogen bonds helps to establish the packing.
