Crystal structure of (N1,N3-bis­­{[1-(4-meth­­oxy­benz­yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]methyl­­idene}-2,2-di­meth­yl­propane-1,3-di­amine)­bis­­(thio­cyanato)­iron(II)

The unit cell of the title compound, [FeII(NCS)2(C29H32N8O2)], consists of eight charge-neutral complex mol­ecules. In the complex mol­ecule, the tetra­dentate ligand N1,N3-bis­{[1-(4-meth­oxy­benz­yl)-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl]methyl­ene}-2,2-di­methyl­propane-1,3-di­amine coordinates to the FeII ion through the N atoms of the 1,2,3-triazole and aldimine groups. Two thio­cyanate anions, coordinated through their N atoms, complete the coordination sphere of the central Fe ion. In the crystal, neighbouring mol­ecules are linked through weak C⋯C, C⋯N and C⋯S inter­actions into a one-dimensional chain running parallel to [010]. The inter­molecular contacts were qu­anti­fied using Hirshfeld surface analysis and two-dimensional fingerprint plots, revealing the relative contributions of the contacts to the crystal packing to be H⋯H (37.5%), H⋯C/C⋯H (24.7%), H⋯S/S⋯H (15.7%) and H⋯N/N⋯H (11.7%). The average Fe—N bond distance is 2.167 Å, indicating the high-spin state of the FeII ion, which does not change upon cooling, as demonstrated by low-temperature magnetic susceptibility measurements.
