Abstract
Dinuclear iron(III) complexes, [(phenO)Fe(SO4)]2·2CH3OH (1) and [(bpmapO)Fe(NO3)]2(NO3)2·3CH3OH (2) have been prepared by the reaction of phenOH/bpmapOH and FeSO4·7H2O/Fe(NO3)3·9H2O in methanol, respectively (phenOH = N-(2-pyridylmethyl)-N′-(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine, bpmapOH = N-(bis(2-pyridylmethyl)amino)-2-methylpropan-2-ol). Both complexes are ethoxy-bridged dinuclear species and the iron(III) ions in 1 and 2 have distorted octahedral geometries. Both complexes show strong antiferromagnetic interactions through the bridged ethoxy groups within the dimeric units.
