Abstract
The title compound, [Fe(C7H5FN)Cl(C3H9P)3], was obtained as a product of the reaction of [Fe(Me3P)4] with a molar equivalent of (2-chloro-6-fluorophenyl)methanimine in diethyl ether. This compound is sensitive to air, and rapidly decomposes when exposed to air for a few minutes. The Fe atom has an octahedral coordination geometry in which the bidentate fluorophenyl methanimine ligand forms the equatorial plane with the Cl atom and one of the trimethylphosphane ligands. The other two trimethylphosphane ligands are located in the axial positions. In the crystal, an N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bond occurs.
