Abstract
A rare, low‐spin FeIV imide complex [(pyrr2py)FeNAd] (pyrr2py2−=bis(pyrrolyl)pyridine; Ad=1‐adamantyl) confined to a cis‐divacant octahedral geometry, was prepared by reduction of N3Ad by the FeII precursor [(pyrr2py)Fe(OEt2)]. The imide complex is low‐spin with temperature‐independent paramagnetism. In comparison to an authentic FeIII complex, such as [(pyrr2py)FeCl], the pyrr2py2− ligand is virtually redox innocent.
