The asymmetric unit of the title compound, [Fe2(C5H5)2- (C2H8N2)(CO)4](BF4)2, contains two half-cations, each
located on a center of symmetry, and two tetrafluoridoborate anions. The iron atoms adopt a three-legged piano-stool
geometry. All amine H atoms are involved in N—HF hydrogen bonds, which consolidate the crystal packing along
with weak C—HO and C—HF interactions.
