Crystal structure of octa-kis-(4-meth-oxy-pyridinium) bis-(4-meth-oxy-pyridine-κN)tetra-kis-(thio-cyanato-κN)ferrate(III) bis-[(4-meth-oxypyri-dine-κN)pentakis-(thio-cyanato-κN)ferrate(III)] hexa-kis-(thio-cyanato-κN)ferrate(III) with iron in three different octa-hedral coordination environments.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of the title salt, (C₆H₈NO)₈[Fe(NCS)₄(C₆H₇NO)₂][Fe(NCS)₅(C₆H₇NO)]₂[Fe(NCS)₆], comprises three negatively charged octa-hedral Fe^III complexes with different coordination environments in which the Fe^III atoms are coordinated by a different number of thio-cyanate anions and 4-meth-oxy-pyridine ligands. Charge balance is achieved by 4-meth-oxy-pyridinium cations. The asymmetric unit consists of three Fe^III cations, one of which is located on a centre of inversion, one on a twofold rotation axis and one in a general position, and ten thio-cyanate anions, two 4-meth-oxy-pyridine ligands and 4-meth-oxy-pyridinium
