Trichlorido[(methyl{2-[methyl(2-pyridylmethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)acetonitrile]iron(III) methanol hemisolvate

The title compound, [FeCl3(C12H18N4)]·0.5CH3OH, contains an FeIII ion in a distorted octahedral coordination environment. The neutral N,N′,N′′-tridentate ligand adopts a fac coordination mode, and chloride ligands lie trans to each of the three...
