Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="main" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>In the title compound, [Fe(C₁₀H₈N₂)₃](C₉H₅N₄O)₂·2H₂O, the chiral cations lie across twofold rotation axes in the space group <italic>C</italic>2/<italic>c</italic>. The anions and the water molecules are linked by two independent O—H...N hydrogen bonds to form <italic>C</italic>₂²(8) chains, and these chains are linked by the cations <italic>via</italic> C—H...N and C—H...O hydrogen bonds to form two interpenetrating three‐dimensional frameworks, each of which contains only one enantiomeric form of the chiral cation.</p> </abstract>
