2-Ferrocenyl-N-(2-ferrocenylbenzo­yl)-N-(4-methyl-2-pyrid­yl)benzamide

The title compound, [Fe(2)(C(5)H(5))(2)(C(30)H(22)N(2)O(2))], a 2:1 product of the reaction of 2-ferrocenylbenzoic acid and 2-amino-4-methyl­pyridine, forms a twisted mol­ecular structure in the solid state due to steric effects from the two benzene rings ortho-substituted with ferrocenyl and carbonyl-derived groups. A short intra­molecular C—H⋯π interaction is observed involving a substituted η(5)-C(5)H(4) ring and an ortho H atom of the benzene ring on the opposite side of the mol­ecule. In the crystal structure, there are no classical hydrogen bonds: inter­actions comprise a short C(6)—H⋯π(C(6)) inter­action involving substituted benzene rings and two C—H⋯O=C inter­actions per mol­ecule.
