TRIS(4-FLURO-2,2'-BIPYRIDYL)IRON(II) HEXAFLUOROPHOSPHATE

[Fe(C10H7FN2)3][PF6]2, M(r) = 868.31, monoclinic, P2(1)/n, a = 10.422 (1), b = 17.294 (2), c = 18.581 (3) angstrom, beta = 94.56 (1)-degrees, V = 3338.3 (7) angstrom 3, Z = 4, D(x) = 1.728 Mg m-3, lambda(Mo K-alpha) = 0.71069 angstrom, mu = 0.659 mm-1, F(000) = 1736, T = 294 K, R = 0.048 for 3345 reflections with I greater-than-or-equal-to 3-sigma(I). The solid-state results are consistent with the isomeric ratio of 3:1 merifac observed in solution, although only four of the eight possible isomers are permitted.
