Fig. 3. View of the metal complex from the crystal structure of 4Mes with anisotropic displacement ellipsoids set at 50% probability. Mesityl groups shown as wireframe, hydrogen atoms, two co-crystallised diethyl ether and a second equivalent of 4Mes have been omitted for clarity. Selected bond distances (Å) and angles (°) for 4Mes shown: Fe1–C1 1.8395(14), Fe1–O1 1.9470(11), Fe1–C51 1.7549(16), Fe1–C52 1.828(2), Fe1–C53 1.8382(19), Fe1–C1–O1 80.81(5), O1–C2–O2 118.77(13).
