metal-organic compounds
In the title compound, [Fe(C18H14NO)(C7H9O)], an N,N-diphenylcarboxamide moiety and a hydroxyethyl group are attached to the ferrocene skeleton. The cyclopentadienyl rings deviate only slightly from an eclipsed conformation. Two C—Hπ interactions link the molecules into sheets. According to the X-ray, IR, and 1H NMR data, the molecule also possesses an intramolecular O—HO hydrogen bond.
