([eta superscript 5]-Cyclopentadienyl)[(1,2,3,4,4a,10a-[eta superscript 6])- 2-methylthianthrene]iron(II) hexafluorophosphate

Abstract

The structure of the title compound, [Fe(C[subscript 5]H[subscript 5])(C[subscript 13]H[subscript 10]-S[subscript 2])].PF[subscript 6], (I), has been studied. The dihedral angle between the outer benzene rings of the ligand is 137.7 (3)°; the benzene and Cp rings are nearly parallel to each other [dihedral angle 3.5 (5)°]. The Fe atom, which is located inside the fold of the heterocyclic ligand, is closer to the.benzene ring [1.548 (3) [Angstrom] than the Cp ring [1.668 (7) [Angstrom]].
