title: Dimeth-yl(3-oxo-3-phenyl-prop-yl)aza-nium tetra-chloridoferrate(III).
abstract: In the title mol-ecular salt, (C(11)H(16)NO)[FeCl(4)], an intra-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond in the cation generates an S(6) loop and the conformation of the C(=O)-C-C-N chain is gauche [torsion angle = 57.0 (6)°]. The anion is a near-regular tetra-hedron [range of Cl-Fe-Cl angles = 107.93 (8)-112.13 (10)°]. There are no directional inter-ionic bonds in the crystal.
