Tetrakis(μ-pivalato-κ2O:O′)bis[(2-methylpyridine-κN)iron(II)](Fe—Fe)

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe2(C5H9O2)4(C6H7N)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 counti...
