[0032] Determination of the single crystal structure:

[0033] A crystal in the form of a colorless block with approximate dimensions of 0.12×0.10×0.05 mm was selected and conveyed on a nylon loop into the N.sub.2 cold gas stream of the diffractometer. During the measurement, a temperature of 100 K was maintained using an Oxford Cryostream 700. The intensity data were measured on a Bruker D8 goniometer with APEX CCD detector. The radiation source used for MoKα radiation (A=0.71073 Å) was an Incoatec I-μS microfocus tube with focusing multilayer optics.

[0034] 6938 intensities were measured in w-scan mode and integrated with the aid of SAINT (Bruker 2009). For the scaling and absorption correction of the data on the basis of multiple determined reflections, the program SADABS (Bruker 2008) was employed.

[0035] The structure was resolved using direct methods (SHELXS, (Sheldrick 2008)) and refined to F2 with SHELXL-2018 (Sheldrick 2015). For the hydrogen atoms, isotropic deflection parameters were calculated on the basis of the anisotropically refined atoms bonded in each case. Hydrogen atoms bonded to C were calculated in standard geometry and included in the refinement. The refinement, for 2633 independent reflections and 130 variables, converged at quality factors of R=0.0217 (all reflections), R=0.0205 (observed reflections), wR2=0.0540, GOF=1.055. In a concluding differential Fourier synthesis, the remaining maxima and minima of the electron density proved to be +0.485 and −0.422 eÅ.sup.−3 respectively.

[0036] The single crystal structural data are as follows: triclinic space group P−1, a=5.326, b=9.593, c=9.607 Å, α=102.6°, β=103.3°, γ=10.6° at T=100 K.

[0052] The brown crystalline product has an iron content of about 151 g/kg, a nitrogen content of about 4.54 g/kg and a surface water content of 21 g/kg. The structure is isomorphic to example 4.

[0053] The diffractogram (calculated on the basis of single crystal diffraction data) of the solid according to example 6 is reproduced in FIG. 12 in the range of 2° 2q 70°. Table 12 lists the 2-theta values, d values and relative intensities of the reflections from the x-ray powder diffractogram of the solid according to example 5. The measurement error of the 2 theta values specified is up to +/−0.2 degree, preferably up to +/−0.1 degree and more preferably up to only +/−0.05 degree. The measurement error of the d values is up to +/−0.02 and the measurement error of the relative intensities is up to +/−10 percentage points, preferably up to +/−5 percentage points.
