Abstract
The title complex, [Fe(C19H27N10)](ClO4)3·2H2O, is a new polymorph of an iron(II) Schiff base complex of tris(2-aminoethyl)methylammonium with imidazole-2-carboxaldehyde. The octahedral FeII atom is bound to three facial imidazole N atoms with average Fe—Nimidazole and Fe—Nimine bond distances of 1.963 (5) and 1.951 (5) Å, respectively. The central N atom of the tripodal ligand is outside the bonding distance at 3.92 Å. The crystal packing is stabilized by the hydrogen-bonding interactions between the two water molecules (acceptor) and two of the three imidazole NH groups (donor). The third imidazole NH group (donor) forms a hydrogen bond to one of the three perchlorate counter-ions (acceptor).
