Fragments of the superconducting FeSe layer, FeSe2 tetrahedral chains, were stabilized in the crystal structure of a new mixed-valent compound Fe3Se4(en)2 (en = ethylenediamine) synthesized from elemental Fe and Se. The FeSe2 chains are separated from each other by means of Fe(en)2 linkers. Mössbauer spectroscopy and magnetometry reveal strong magnetic interactions within the FeSe2 chains which result in antiferromagnetic ordering below 170 K. According to DFT calculations, anisotropic transport and magnetic properties are expected for Fe3Se4(en)2. This compound offers a unique way to manipulate the properties of the Fe-Se infinite fragments by varying the topology and charge of the Fe-amino linkers.

[Fe(en)(tren)][FeSe] ( = ethylenediamine, CHN, = tris(2-aminoethyl)amine, CHN) has been synthesized by a mixed-ligand solvothermal method. Its crystal structure contains heteroleptic [Fe(en)(tren)] complexes with distorted octahedral coordination, incorporated between 1D-FeSe chains composed of edge-sharing FeSe tetrahedra. The twisted octahedral coordination environment of the Fe-amine complex leads to partial dimerization of Fe-Fe distances in the FeSe chains so that the FeSe polyhedra deviate strongly from the regular tetrahedral geometry.

Organic-inorganic hybrid materials built by inorganic and organic building units have attracted intensive interest in the past decades due to unique chemical and physical properties. However, rare organic-inorganic hybrid materials show excellent permanent magnetic properties. Here, we develop a facile chemical solution method to bottom-up synthesize a new hybrid (FeSe)[Fe(dien)].

A one-dimensional (1D) chain compound ( = ethylenediamine), featuring tetrahedral FeSe chains separated by [Fe(en)] cations and Cl anions, has been synthesized by a low temperature solvothermal method using simple starting materials. The degree of distortion in the Fe-Se backbone is similar to previously reported compounds with isolated 1D FeSe chains. Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy reveals the mixed-valent nature of [Fe(en)](FeSe)Cl with Fe centers in the [FeSe] chains and Fe centers in the [Fe(en)] complexes.

Dimensional reduction of superconducting anti PbO-type iron selenide has been achieved by terminating the tetragonal square layers of FeSe tetrahedra by ethylenediamine (en) ligands. We obtained three new structures in the Fe-Se-en system. FeSe(en) contains FeSe single chains bridged via Fe(en) complexes.

The synthesis and structural characterization is reported for [Fe(dien)2][FeSe2]2 and [Fe(tren)][FeSe2]2, two new mixed-valence compounds that contain infinite ∞(1)(FeSe2) tetrahedral chains separated by Fe-amine complexes. The inter- and intra-chain magnetic interactions can be controlled by changing the denticity of the amine while preserving the general structural motif.
