Hexakis(μ(2)-2-amino-ethanethiol-ato)-triiron(III) tris(perchlorate).

ABSTRACT: In the title salt, [Fe(3)(C(2)H(6)NS)(6)](ClO(4))(3), the trinuclear cation lies on a special position of site symmetry; the central Fe atom is coordinated by six thiol-ate groups from the two flanking fac-(S)-[Fe(C(2)H(6)NS)(3)] units. In the flanking units, the three C(2)H(6)NS groups each chelate to the metal atom. The cations inter-act with the perchlorate anions through weak N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds resulting in a three-dimensional network. In the asymmetric unit two cations are present, one of which is disordered over two positions with occupancies of 0.75 and 0.25.
