Crystal structure of -bis(pyridine-2-thiolato)ruthenium(II)

Article abstract of DOI:10.1007/BF01161066

The Ru atom in the title compound, exists in a distorted octahedral geometry defined by a dppe ligand and two 2-pyS anions which function as bidentate ligands via their N- and S- atoms.Important interatomic parameters are Ru-P 2.240(3), 2.256(3); Ru-N 2.131(8), 2.136(8); Ru-S 2.413(3), 2.428(3) Angstroem; P-Ru-P 84.1(1), S-Ru-S 155.0(1) and N-Ru-N 87.5(3) deg.Crystals are monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, with unit cell dimensions a = 10.342(1), b = 31.145(6), c = 11.107(2) Angstroem, β = 113.80(1) deg and Z = 4.The structure was refined to final R = 0.064 for 3057 reflections with I<*>2.5?(I).
