In the centrosymmetric title coordination compound, [Er2{Fe(C5H5)(C6H4O2)}6(CH3OH)2(H2O)2]·2CH3OH, the two ErIII ions are bridged by two ferrocenecarboxylate anions as asymmetrically bridging ligands, leading to dimeric cores. The ErIII ion has a distorted dodecahedral coordination with six coordinating O atoms derived from the ferrocenecarboxylate ligands and two coordinated O atoms from one water molecule and one methanol molecule. The asymmetric unit comprises a half of the complex molecule and a methanol solvent molecule. Intramolecular O—H
O and C—HO interactions occur. In the crystal, molecules are linked by intermolecular O—HO hydrogen bonds and C—HO as well as C—Hπ interactions.

The molecule of the title compound, C7H6ClNO2, is almost planar, with a dihedral angle of 3.34 (14)° between the COOMe group and the aromatic ring. In the crystal, the molecules are arranged into (1
2) layers by C—HN hydrogen bonds and there are π–π stacking interactions between the aromatic rings in adjacent layers [centroid–centroid distance 3.8721 (4) Å]
