A new iron(II) complex has been prepared and characterized. [Fe(TrImA)2(OTf)2] (1, TrImA = 1-Tritylimidazole-4-carboxaldehyde). The solid state structure of 1 has been determined by X-ray crystallography. Compound 1 crystallizes in monoclinic space group P21/c, with a = 10.8323(18) Å, b = 8.1606(13) Å and c = 24.818(4) Å. The iron center is coordinated to two imidazole groups, two pendant aldehyde-derived carbonyl oxygens and two triflate oxygens. The complex is high spin between 300 and 20 K as indicated by variable field variable temperature magnetic measurements. A fit of the magnetic data yielded g = 2.17 and D = 4.05 cm−1. A large HOMO-LUMO gap energy (4.49 eV) exists for 1 indicating high stability.
