N-(Ferrocenylmethyl)-dodecan-1-amine.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, [Fe(C(5)H(5))(C(18)H(32)N)], was synthesized by the amination of ferrocenecarbaldehyde. In the complex, the two cyclo-penta-dienyl (Cp) rings are almost parallel with a dihedral angle of 1.36 (8)°, and are separated by a centroid-centroid distance of 3.299 (2) Å. In the crystal, adjacent mol-ecules are linked into a one-dimensional supra-molecular structure via weak C-H⋯π inter-actions between the Cp ring H atom and the Cp ring.
