synthesis, characterization, and crystal structure determination of iron(iii) hetero-ligand complex containing chloride, dimethyl sulfoxide, pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylate and water, [fe(pydc)(dmso)(h2o)cl]

a new metal-organic compound, [fe(pydc)(dmso)(h2o)cl], (where pydc is pyridine-2, 6-dicarboxylate and dmso is dimethyl sulfoxide), has been synthesized and characterized by singlecrystal x-ray diffraction, tga/dta, ir and raman spectroscopy. green-yellow crystals,crystallized in the monoclinic system, space group p21/n, a = 7.2461(4) å, b = 10.3018(4) å, c =17.7667(10) å, α = 90°, β = 90.014°(5), 1329.54(12) å3, z = 4 and r = 0.0317. in the molecule ofthe crystallized compound fe ion is sixfold coordinated with distorted octahedral geometry andthe structure is stabilized by o-h…o hydrogen bonds.
