Abstract

In the title complex, [Fe(2)Cl(2)(C(11)H(16)N(4))(4)][FeCl(4)](2), the asymmetric unit is composed of one and a half units of [Fe(bdmpm)(2)Cl](2)(FeCl(4))(2)(bdmpm = bis(bis(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazol-1-yl)methane). The three independent Fe(II) atom have a distorted octa-hedral coordination geometry comprising two bridging chloride anions and four N atoms from two bis-(3,5-dimethyl-pyrazol-1-yl)methane ligands. The Fe(III) atom has a tetra-hedral coordination geometry comprising four chloride anions.
