Abstract
In the title compound, {(C12H12N2)[Fe(NCS)4]}n, each FeII cation is coordinated by four N-bonded and two S-bonded thiocyanate anions in an octahedral coordination mode. The asymmetric unit consists of one FeII cation, located on a center of inversion, as well as one protonated (E)-4,4′-(ethene-1,2-diyl)dipyridinium dication and two thiocyanate anions in general positions. The crystal structure consists of Fe—(NCS)2—Fe chains extending along the a axis, in which two further thiocyanate anions are only terminally bonded via nitrogen. Non-coordinating (E)-4,4′-(ethene-1,2-diyl)dipyridinium cations are found between the chains.
