chemically haemoglobin is a iron complex. haem is the iron part in haemoglobin. without the iron the complex entity is not formed. and without iron rbc can't carry oxygen because there will be no lone pair electrons to give out. in other words oxyhaemoglobin doesn't forms. hence iron is an important part in haemoglobin as well as in rbc.
