(Cyclooctatetraene)iron tricarbonyl is the organoiron compound with the formula (C₈H₈)Fe(CO)₃. Like other examples of ( diene)Fe(CO)₃ complexes, it is an orange, diamagnetic solid. Although several isomers are possible, only the η⁴-C₈H₈ complex is observed. The complex is an example of a ring-whizzer, since, on the NMR time-scale, the Fe(CO)₃ center migrates around the rim of the cyclooctatetraene ligand.^[1]
