Abstract Single crystals of the mononuclear iron(II) complex of formula [Fe(bpym)3](ClO4)2·1/4H2O (bpym=2,2′-bipyrimidine) have been prepared and characterized crystallographically. The complex is monoclinic, P21/c, a=13.688(5), b=19.391(6), c=11.554(5) A, β=102.22(3)°, V=2997(2) A3, Z=4, R=0.063 and Rw=0.068. The structure analysis reveals a distorted octahedral geometry around the iron atom. The average Fe–N bond length and N–Fe–N bidentate angle are 1.970(5) A and 81.0(1)°, respectively. The value of the Fe–N distance and that of the room temperature magnetic moment are in agreement with its singlet 1A1 ground state.
