Abstract
|
Ferrocene has attracted the interest of many scientists and research groups worldwide because of its applications in
materials science (Hudson et al., 2001; Liu et al., 2000). Ferrocene as a starting material in synthetic organometallic
systems and its derivatives in industrial applications have become a great area of interest for many researchers and
industrial chemists.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound comprises a half of a ferrocene drivative (Fig. 1). The FeII atom lies on a
twofold rotation axis, giving an eclipsed conformation for the cyclopentadienyl ligands. The bond lengths and angles are
within the normal ranges and are comparable to the related structure (Ren et al., 2012).
