Abstract

A new dialkoxo-bridged diiron(III) complex, [Fe2(N3)2(L)2] (ClO4)2 (1) [HL = bis(benzimidazol-2-ylmethyl)(2-hydroxy-ethyl)amine], was synthesized and characterized. According to X-ray crystallographic studies on the solvated species 1·2C2H5OH, each Fe(III) ion lies in a highly distorted octahedral environment, and two Fe(III) ions are bridged by the ethoxyl oxygens from two L ligands. Cryomagnetic analyses indicated a moderate antiferromagnetic interaction between the high-spin Fe(III) ions, with J= -21.3 cm.-1.
