2,9-Dimethyl-1,10-phenanthrolin-1-ium tetra­chloridoferrate(III) methanol monosolvate

In the title compound, (C(14)H(13)N(2))[FeCl(4)]·CH(3)OH, the 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthrolin-1-ium cation, FeCl(4) (−) anion and methanol solvent mol­ecule lie on a twofold rotation axis. Due to symmetry, the H atom on the N atom of the cation is half-occupied. In the anion, the Fe(III) atom has a tetra­hedral geometry. H atoms of the methanol mol­ecule are disordered over two sets of sites around the twofold axis. In the crystal, π–π contacts between the pyridine rings and between the pyridine and benzene rings [centroid–centroid distances = 3.6535 (16) and 3.5522 (17) Å] and inter­molecular O—H⋯N and N—H⋯O hydrogen bonds stabilize the structure.
