The title compound, [Fe(C14H12N2)3](C4N3)2, consists of one [Fe(dimephen)3](2+) complex cation (dimephen = 5,6-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) and two uncoordinating tcm anions (tcm = tricyano-methanide). In the complex cation, the Fe(II) atom is coordinated by six N atoms from three chelating dimephen ligands at an average Fe-N distance of 1.963 (4) Å giving a distorted octa-hedral geometry. The crystal structure is stabilized by weak C-H⋯N hydrogen bonds and C N⋯π inter-actions between planar [m ...[more]
