Abstract Single crystals of [Fe(Cp) 2 ] 3 (Bi 2 Cl 9 )·thf were obtained from a thf solution containing ferrocene and BiCl 3 . The structure shows disorder at room temperature which disappears upon cooling, coupled with a decrease in symmetry. The title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P 2 1 2 1 2 1 [a = 1698.64(2), b = 2318.69(3), c = 1085.66(2) pm] with three ferrocenium ions, one nonachlorodibismutate ion and one molecule of thf in the asymmetric unit.
