Cover illustration: The reaction that led to the serendipitous crystallization of the complex fac-tris(dimethyl sulfoxide-κO)tris(thiocyanato-κN)iron(III), Fe(NCS)3(DMSO)3 (DMSO is dimethylsulfoxide), was originally designed for the solvothermal synthesis of a heteroleptic iron complex, with acetonitrile serving both as solvent and nitrile substrate for a possible in situ azide–nitrile cycloaddition leading to a tetrazole-containing ligand. The asymmetric unit contains one neutral molecule in which the central FeIII atom exhibits a distorted octahedral coordination environment. The three N-bonded thiocyanato ligands and the three O-bonded dimethyl sulfoxide ligands adopt a fac configuration. In the crystal, weak C—H⋯S hydrogen bonds link the complexes into centrosymmetric dimers that are arranged in layers parallel to (001). See: Bensegueni & Cherouana [IUCrData (2026). 8, x260592].
