(E)-1-Ferrocenyl-3-(2-fur-yl)prop-2-en-1-one.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, [Fe(C(5)H(5))(C(12)H(9)O(2))], exhibits an E configuration. In the ferrocene unit, the two cyclo-penta-dienyl rings are almost parallel [dihedral angle = 0.76 (12)°] and the C atoms are in an eclipsed conformation. An intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bond generates an S(5) ring. In the crystal, the mol-ecules are linking into zigzag chains via two C-H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter-actions along the c axis and neighbouring chains are stabilized by electrostatic inter-action forces.
