{(1R,2R)-N,N′-Bis[2-(N-methyl­anilino)benzyl­idene]cyclo­hexane-1,2-diamine-κ²N,N′}dichloridoiron(II)

In the title compound, [FeCl₂(C₃₄H₃₆N₄)], the Fe^II ion is coordinated by two Cl atoms and by two N atoms from a (1R,2R)-N,N′-bis[2-(N-methyl­anilino)benzyl­idene]cyclo­hexane-1,2-diamine ligand in a distorted tetra­hedral geometry. The mol­ecule has approximate C₂ point symmetry. The dihedral angles between the phenyl and benzene rings on either side of the ligand are 64.56 (14) and 65.61 (13)°.

N,N′-Bis(2,6-diethyl­phen­yl)acenaphthyl­ene-1,2-diimine

The title compound, C₃₂H₃₂N₂, has crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry, with two C atoms lying on the rotation axis. The dihedral angle between the substituted benzene ring and the naphthalene ring system is 79.8 (1)°. The crystal structure is stabilized by C—H...N inter­actions, which form a chain motif along the b-axis direction.
