Sažetak
In the title compound, [Fe(C_7H_7O_2)_2], the cyclopentadienyl rings and the two attached methoxycarbonyl groups, in an anti arrangement, form an extended pi-conjugated system. The Fe-C distances range from 2.035 (3) to 2.61 (3) A and the average value of the C-C bond lengths in the two cyclopentadienyl rings is 1.419 (5) A. The rings are almost parallel to one another [1.0(2)_o] and are mutually twisted from an eclipsed conformation by only 1.8(3)_o (average value). The methoxycarbonyl groups are twisted out of the plane of the cyclopenthadienyl rings by 6.5 (4) and 15.7 (4)_o, respectively. The molecules are joined into dimers by intermolecular C-H..O hydrogen bonds that form tenmemebered rings. The same types of hydrogen bonds form eight-membered rings and infinite chains along the gb axis.
