Synthesis, crystal structure and properties of tetra-kis-(pyridine-3-carbo-nitrile)-dithio-cyanatoiron(II) and of diaqua-bis-(pyridine-3-carbo-nitrile)-di-thio-cyanatoiron(II) pyridine-3-carbo-nitrile monosolvate.

ABSTRACT: The reaction of iron thio-cyanate with 3-cyano-pyridine (C₆H₄N₂) leads to the formation of two compounds with the composition [Fe(NCS)₂(C₆H₄N₂)₄] (1) and [Fe(NCS)₂(C₆H₄N₂)₂(H₂O)₂]·2C₆H₄N₂ (2). The asymmetric unit of 1 consists of one iron cation, two thio-cyanate anions and four 3-cyano-pyridine ligands in general positions. The iron cation is octa-hedrally coordinated by two N-bonded thio-cyanate anions and four 3-cyano-pyridine ligands. The complexes are arranged in columns along the crystallographic c-axis direction and are linked by weak C-H⋯N inter-actions. In
