The reduction of nitriles to primary amines using an inexpensive silane such as polymethylhydrosiloxane (PMHS) is an industrially important reaction. Herein we report the synthesis of an earth-abundant Fe(III) complex bearing a phenalenyl-based ligand that was characterized by mass spectroscopy, elemental analysis, cyclicvoltammetry, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The complex showed excellent
