The title Fe(III) complex, [Fe(C(22)H(32)N(4)O(2))]I, contains a six-coordinate FeN(4)O(2) cation in which the ligand is a reduced Schiff base resulting from the NaBH(4) reduction of the condensation product between salicylaldehyde and 1,5,8,12-tetra-azadodecane. In spite of the increased flexibility of the saturated backbone of the ligand compared to the Schiff base from which it was synthesized, the complex adopts a cis-FeN(4)O(2) conformation for the phenolic O-atom donors, which contrasts wi ...[more]
