Abstract:
In the title compound,, [Fe(C5H5)(C17H20BO2)], the two near parallel cyclopentadienyl rings of the ferrocene group are eclipsed. The benzene ring is tilted with respect to the attached cyclopentadiene ring by 17.0 (1)degrees and by 24.2 (1)degrees with respect to the dioxaborolane ring. The molecules assemble in the crystal via C-H center dot center dot center dot pi interactions between the cyclopentadienyl H atoms and the benzene and cyclopentadienyl rings of neighbouring molecules.
