Abstract

The title compound, [Fe(C₅H₅)(C₁₉H₁₄ClN₂)], a model electroactive agent for anion sensor and malarial parasite studies, has Fe-C bond lengths in the range 2.020 (3)-2.0543 (18) Å. The Fe...Cg distances (Cg indicates a ring centroid) are essentially similar, with values of 1.6467 (10) and 1.6487 (11) Å for the substituted and unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl rings, respectively, with a linear Cg...Fe...Cg angle of 179.12 (7)°. The Fe-CCp-Csp³ angle is 128.43 (13)° and the Fe1-CCp-Csp³-NBz torsion angle 110.27 (17)° (Cp is cyclopentadienyl and Bz is benzimidazole). Weak C-H...Cl contacts form the only intermolecular interactions of significance.
