5-Ferrocenylmethyl-2,2-dimethyl-5-(prop-2-yn­yl)-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione

The title compound, [Fe(C5H5)(C15H15O4)], was obtained by hydrogenation and subsequent alkyl­ation of 5-ferrocenyl­methyl­ene-2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane-4,6-dione. Apart from C—H⋯O=C hydrogen bonds, C C—H⋯π inter­actions forming crosswise chains of the mol­ecules are observed in the crystal structure.
