metal-organic compounds
The title compound, [Fe2(C17H16N2O2)3], was isolated from the reaction between iron(III) perchlorate hydrate and a mixture of 1,3-bis(salicylideneamino)propane and triethylamine in ethanol. Recrystallization from a dichloroethane solution resulted in a porous solvent-free array of molecules. The molecule lies on a special position with twofold symmetry.
organic compounds
The title compound, C14H12N2O2, was isolated from the reaction between 4-methylphenyldiazonium nitrite and salicylaldehyde in sodium hydroxide. Structural analysis revealed a nearly planar molecule with the aromatic rings in trans positions about the azo group. The molecular packing shows interdigitated stacks of 12-membered hydrogen-bonded dimers.
