Crystal structure of methyl N-ferrocenylcarbamate

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C7H8NO2)], contains two independent molecules consisting of a ferrocenyl moiety and a nitrogen-bound methyl carbamate. These units are almost perpendicular to each other, making dihedral angles of 87.74 (9) and 87.32 (8)°. In each independent molecule, the cyclopentadienyl rings deviate slightly from an eclipsed conformation and lie virtually parallel [dihedral angles = 1.42 (15) and 0.49 (13)°]. In the crystal, molecules are linked by N—H...O hydrogen bonds into chains along the a-axis direction
