(Acetonitrile-κN)[2-(diphenylphosphanyl)ethanamine-κ²N,P][(1,2,3,4,5-η)-1,2,3,4,5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl]iron(II) hexafluoridophosphate tetrahydrofuran monosolvate

Abstract

In the title cationic Cp*Fe(II) complex, [Fe(C10H15)(CH3CN)(C14H16NP)]PF6·C4H8O, the metal ion is coordinated by the η 5-Cp* ring as well as the P and N atoms of the chelating 2-(diphenyl­phosphino)ethyl­amine ligand and an additional acetonitrile mol­ecule in a piano-chair conformation. The PF6 − anion is disordered over two sets of sites with occupancies of 0.779 (7) and 0.221 (7).
