Abstract New iron(III) complexes of 5-methyl-3-formylpyrazole thiosemicarbazone (HMPzTS) and 5-methyl-3-formylpyrazole-4-phenylthiosemicarbazone (HMPzPTS), namely [Fe(MPzTS)2]X and [Fe(MPzPTS)2]X respectively, where X=Cl, NO3, SCN and ClO4, have been synthesised and physico-chemically characterised by magnetic measurements (polycrystalline state), electronic, i.r., e.s.r. and Mössbauer spectra. All are cationic complexes containing two monoprotonic tridentate ligands with NNS donor sites and an anionic counterpart; they behave as 1:1 electrolytes in MeOH/DMF. Coordination to central iron(III) via the pyrazolyl nitrogen (2N), the azomethine nitrogen and the thiolato sulphur atom is confirmed in the complexes from i.r. data. E.s.r. data (RT & LNT) reveal the presence of a spin-paired iron(III) cation with d2 xyd2 yzd1 xy configuration. The 57Fe Mössbauer spectral data (RT) are commensurate with the presence of two iron(III) spin states, the percentage of each being dependent upon the counterion of the species.
