title: 2-(3-Chloro-benzo-yl)-3-(3,4-di-chloro-phen-yl)-1-(4-ferrocenylphen-yl)guanidine.
abstract: In the title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C25H17Cl3N3O)], the isolated cyclo-penta-dienyl (Cp) ring is disordered over two set of sites in a 0.577 (8):0.423 (8) ratio. The dihedral angle between the other Cp ring and its attached benzene ring is 13.6 (3)°, and that between the benzene ring and the guanidine group is 64.8 (2)°. One of the N-H groups forms both an intra- and an inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bond; the other N-H group does not form any hydrogen bonds. In the crystal, pairs of the inter-molecular N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds link the mol-ecules into inversion dimers.
