Abstract
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe(NCS)2(C6H4N2)2(H2O)2]·2C6H4N2, comprises one FeII cation occupying an inversion centre as well as one thio-cyanate anion, one water mol-ecule and two 4-cyano-pyridine mol-ecules in general positions. The iron cations are coordinated by two N-bonded thiocyanate anions, two (pyridine)N-bonded 4-cyano-pyridine ligands and two water mol-ecules into discrete complexes. The resulting coordination polyhedron can be described as a slightly distorted octa-hedron. The discrete complexes are connected through centrosymmetric pairs of (pyridine)C-H⋯N(cyano) hydrogen bonds into chains that are further linked into a three-dimensional network through inter-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bonds involving the 4-cyano-pyridine solvent mol-ecules.
