Abstract

The complex cis-[Ru(bpy)₂{PMe(o-tol)₂}Cl⁺][ClO^-₄] crystallizes in space group P2₁/c with a = 9.375(2) Å, b = 22.019(7) Å, c = 16.153(4) Å, β= 90.83(2)°, V = 3333.9(16) Å³ and D(calc'd) = 1.547 g/cm³ for Z = 4. The Ru-PMe(o-tol)₂ bond length of 2.357(3) Å is significantly longer than distances of Ru-PMe₂(o-tol) = 2.324(2) Å and Ru-PMe₃ = 2.310(2) Å in analogous complexes. The corresponding Ru-P(o-tol)₃ complex has eluded synthesis, probably due to steric hindrance.
