Recent investigations of a series of low-spin iron (II) complexes with macrocyclic ligands have yielded a new sexadentate iron (II) chelate formed by the electrophilic attack of two coordinated acetonitrile molecules at the apical carbons of the parent macrocycles. In this way the acetonitriles form appended iminoethyl groups that are well oriented for chelation. A three-dimensional x-ray crystallographic structural determination has confirmed and clarified the unique nature of the complex, cis-3, 11-Bis (l-iminoethyl-2, 12-dimethyl-1, 5, 9, 13-tetraazacyclohexadeca-1, 4, 9, 12-tetraeneiron (II) hexafluorophosphate crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group/’2, 2121 with cell dimensions a= 21.647 (19), b= 11.077 (11), and c= 11.115 (9) Á. The structure was solved byFourier and least-squares techniques to a conventional R= 0.064 for 2787 reflections. The six nitrogens form a slightly trigonal distorted octahedronand the iron nitrogendistances vary from 1.936 to 1.971 Á. The average CN bond length of 1.256 Á coincides with double bond localization in these rings. The coordination sphere therefore consists of six imine nitrogen donors. The macrocycle is folded and the nitrogens of the iminoethyl groups are coordinated in cis positions.
