Abstract

The extreme folding of the heterocycle and the Me groups on the C5 ring stabilize complex 1 to such an extent that an additional C5Me5Fe fragment cannot be stacked to give a triple-decker complex. The green, air-sensitive compound is the first structurally characterized iron sandwich complex with 16 valence electrons.
