    Abstract

    The reaction of anhydrous FeCl3with 1H-benzotriazole-1-methanol (Bta-CH2OH) in MeOH produces the pentanuclear complex [Fe5O2(OMe)2(Bta)4(BtaH)(MeOH)5Cl5], containing a distorted tetrahedron of four Fe ions centred on a fifth. The central Fe is antiferromagnetically coupled to the peripheral Fe ions resulting in an S = 15/2 spin ground state.
