A novel pentanuclear iron(III) complex with a defective double-cubane core
Abstract
A novel pentanuclear iron(III) complex with 2,6-bis[N-(4-imidazolylethyl)iminomethyl]-4-methylphenol (HL′), [Fe5(L′)2(O)4(MeCO2)3][ClO4]2·2EtOH·H2O, is synthesized and characterized by X-ray crystallography, Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility.
