Abstract

The complex cis-[Ru(bpy)2{PPh(o-tolyl)2}Cl+][ClO 4-] crystallized from a solution in dichloromethane as the dichloromethane-water solvate. The structure was refined to R = 4.5% for those 2433 reflections with |Fo| > 6σ(|Fo|). The octahedral Ru(II) cation is associated with metal-ligand distances as follows: Ru-Cl = 2.434(3)Å, Ru-PPh(o-tol)2 = 2.382(2)Å, and Ru-N = 2.037(7) - 2.088(7)Å. The structure is stabilized by a hydrogen-bonded CH2Cl2⋯ClO4-⋯H 2O channel which incorporates adventitious water of crystallization.
