Notes:
Reaction of 2-lithio-1,1′-dichloroferrocene (LiCl2Fc) with [PtI(CH3)3(bipy)], where bipy is 2,2′-bipyridine, results in the formation of fac-[Pt(CH3)3(Cl2Fc)(bipy)], i.e. fac-[Pt(CH3)3(C10H7Cl2Fe)(C10H8N2)]. The three methyl groups of the octahedral metal complex are in the fac configuration, with Pt—C bond lengths of 2.072 (11), 2.082 (11) and 2.092 (11) Å, together with a Pt—C(Cl2Fc) distance of 2.146 (11) Å. In one of the two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit, the C atoms of the cyclopentadienyl rings are in an eclipsed conformation, while in the other, they are staggered by 26.7°.
