Tris[μ-2,2'-(azinodimethylidyne)diphenolato-κO,N:N',O']diiron(III) tetra-hydro-furan tetra-solvate.

ABSTRACT: In the title binuclear iron(III) complex, [Fe(2)(C(14)H(10)N(2)O(2))(3)]·4C(4)H(8)O or [Fe(2)(salda)(3)]·4THF [H(2)salda = 2,2'-(azinidimethyl-ene)diphenolate and THF is tetra-hydro-furan], the ligand possesses a rotationally flexible single N-N bond. Three dinucleating O,N:N',O'-donor ligands provide three diazine (=N-N=) bridges between the metal ions, yielding a binuclear triple helicate structure with crystallographic C(2) symmetry, the rotation axis bis-ecting one N-N bond.
