4-Ferrocenyl-1-methyl-3-benzoylspiro[pyrrolidine-2,11′-indeno[1,2-b]quinoxaline]
Abstract
In the title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C31H24N3O)], the pyrrolidine ring adopts a twist conformation. The pyrrolidine ring is almost perpendicular to the indenoquinoxaline ring system, making a dihedral angle of 84.44 (5)°. The cyclopentadienyl rings of the ferrocene moiety adopt an eclipsed conformation. The crystal packing features weak C—H...N and C—H...π interactions.
