Experimental top

Equimolar iron(II) acetate and salicylaldehyde were put into a Teflon vessel, and aqueous ethanol solution (H2O: EtOH = 1: 1 v/v) was added. The vessel was then put in a stainless steel tank to make hydrothermal treatment. The tank was heated to 140°C for 48 h. After the autoclave was cooled to room temperature, red crystals were formed. They were filtered, washed with aqueous ethanol solution for three times, and dried in a vacuo using CaCl2, yield 71%.

Refinement top

C-bound H atoms were included in the riding model approximation with C—H = 0.93 - 0.97 Å, and with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C).

Special details top

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes.

Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger.
