Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe(C11H19Si)2], consists of one half of a ferrocene derivative. The Fe(II) atom lies on a twofold rotation axis, giving an eclipsed conformation for the cyclo-penta-dienyl ligands. No significant inter-molecular inter-actions are observed in the crystal structure.
