The crystal structure of the title compound [Fe(S2CNEt2)3][I5], has been determined by X-ray diffraction at 295(1) K, being refined to a residual of 0.049 for 3 328 ‘observed’ reflections. Crystals are triclinic, space group P, a= 17.41(1), b= 10.197(9), c= 10.184(8)Å, α= 74.71(6), β= 73.29(6), γ= 89.19(7)°, and Z= 2. The structure comprises [Fe(S2CNEt2)3]+ cations and I5– anions. Within the cation the symmetry is approximately D3 with six Fe–S distances ranging between 2.292(4) and 2.314(4)Å.
