Abstract
The title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C18H32N)], was synthesized by the amination of ferrocenecarbaldehyde. In the complex, the two cyclopentadienyl (Cp) rings are almost parallel with a dihedral angle of 1.36 (8)°, and are separated by a centroid–centroid distance of 3.299 (2) Å. In the crystal, adjacent molecules are linked into a one-dimensional supramolecular structure via weak C—H⋯π interactions between the Cp ring H atom and the Cp ring.

Summary
Key indicators: single-crystal X-ray study; T = 293 K; mean (C–C) = 0.003 A; R factor = 0.037; wR factor = 0.112; data-to-parameter ratio = 21.5. The two cyclopentadienyl (Cp) rings are almost parallel with a dihedral angle of 1.36 (8), and are separated by a centroid– centroid distance of 3.299 (2) A. Adjacent molecules are linked into a one-dimensional supramolecular structure via weak C—HÁ Á Á interactions between the Cp ring H atom and the Cp ring.
