Abstract :
The title compound, [Fe3(C11H11N2O5)2Cl3(C2H6OS)3]2·7C2H6OS·2H2O, was isolated accidentally from an Fe0–NiCl2·6H2O–H3L–TEA–DMSO system [where H3L is the product of the condensation between p-nitrosalicylaldehyde and 2-amino-2-methylpropane-1,3-diol and dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), and TEA is triethylamine]. The structure is based on a trinuclear {Fe3(μ-O)4} core, with an angular arrangement of the FeIII ions that can be explained by the geometrical restrictions of two bulky ligands, each coordinating to all of the metal cations.
