In the title hydrated molecular salt, [Fe(C12H8N2)3](C9H5N4O)2·0.5H2O, the water molecule site is half-occupied. The Fe—N bond lengths within the octahedral tris-chelate [Fe(phen)3]2+ ion (phen is 1,10-phenantroline) are indicative of a low-spin d6 electronic configuration for the metal ion. The C—N, C—C and C—O bond lengths in the polynitrile anions indicate extensive electronic delocalization. In the crystal, the components are linked through O—HN hydrogen bonds, forming [100] chains, as well as through Coulombic interactions.

The title compound, C17H21NO2, was synthesized by the reaction of (1R)-(+)-3-benzylcamphor and hydroxylamine. The oxazole ring makes a dihedral angle of 23.42 (16)° with the phenyl ring. The six-membered ring of the norboryl group adopts a boat conformation, whereas each of the five-membered rings of the norboryl group displays a flattened envelope conformation, with the C atom carrying the methyl groups representing the flap for both rings. In the crystal, molecules are linked into zigzag chains propagating along the b axis by O—HN hydrogen bonds.
