Abstract

The title complex, [Fe₄(C₅H₇O₂)₄(CH₃O)₆Cl₂] or [Fe₄(acac)₄(μ₂-OMe)₄(μ₃-OMe)₂Cl₂] (acac = acetylacetonate), crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbca space group with one half of the molecule per asymmetric unit, the other half being completed by inversion symmetry. The core structure consists of a face-sharing double pseudo-cubane entity with two opposite corners missing. Weak C-H···Cl intermolecular interactions result in a two-dimensional layered structure parallel to the ac plane.
