Tetra­kis(μ-pivalato-κ(2) O:O′)bis­[(2-methyl­pyridine-κN)iron(II)](Fe—Fe)

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe(2)(C(5)H(9)O(2))(4)(C(6)H(7)N)(2)], contains one unique Fe-atom site located close to a centre of symmetry which generates the mol­ecular dimer. The two Fe atoms are bridged by four carboxyl­ate groups and are each coordinated by a mol­ecule of 2-picoli...

Descripción
Sumario:The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe(2)(C(5)H(9)O(2))(4)(C(6)H(7)N)(2)], contains one unique Fe-atom site located close to a centre of symmetry which generates the mol­ecular dimer. The two Fe atoms are bridged by four carboxyl­ate groups and are each coordinated by a mol­ecule of 2-picoline. Electron counting and the 18-electron rule suggest that a chemical single bond is likely to exist between the two Fe atoms, which are separated by a distance of 2.8576 (4) Å. This bond completes an approximately octa­hedral coordination environment around each Fe atom.
