Abstract
The crystal structure of title compound is consisted by layers of complex cation [Fe(phen)3]2+, oxalic acid and water molecules parallel to [01-1] intercalated by sheet for nitrate anions and the remainder of the water molecules. There is extensive hydrogen bonding leading to a three-dimensional network. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic system, spaces group P1 (N°2), with cell parameters a = 12.661(4)Å, b = 13.045(3)Å, c = 13.444(3)Å, α = 94.90(3)°, β = 117.53(3)°, γ = 101.88(3)°, V = 1884.7(8)Å3, Z = 2, R[I > 2 σ(I)] = 0.0335, wR(F2)[I > 2 σ(I)] = 0.0933.
