Abstract

Two new iron(III) coordination compounds with 2-aminobenzothiazole have been prepared and identified as (C6H4NHC(NH2)S)2[FeCl4]Cl(H2O) (1) and (C6H4NHC(NH2)S)3[Fe(C2O4)3](H2O)2 (2). The compounds were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis in conjunction with evolved gases in air and spectroscopic studies. On the basis of quantum-mechanical calculations the interplay between two non-covalent interactions in 1, anion ··· π and ion-pair interactions, was analyzed.
