2-Ferrocenyl-6-methylpyridin-3-ol
Abstract
In the title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C11H10NO)], the dihedral angle between the pyridyl and substituted cyclopentadienyl rings is 20.4 (3)°. The H atoms of the methyl group are disordered over two positions; their site-occupation factors were fixed at 0.5. The crystal structure is stabilized by well defined intermolecular O—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of a two-dimensional network parallel to (101).
