Abstract: | The low‐temperature (173 K) structure of the title complex, Fe(C8H13O3)3], a metal–organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) precursor, has been analyzed. The Fe atom is octahedrally coordinated and the three chelate rings are found to be significantly non‐planar, adopting a half‐chair conformation with the Fe atom out of the plane. |
