Abstract

The Ru atom in the title compound, [RuCl(2){P(C(6)H(5))(3)}(2){C(6)H(4)(NH)(2)}].1.33CH(3)OH.0.33CH(2)Cl(2), shows a six-coordinate octahedral geometry, with a trans arrangement of the triphenylphosphine groups. One and a half molecules of complex, two molecules of methanol and a half molecule of dichloromethane form the asymmetric unit, with crystallographic twofold rotation symmetry for the complex molecule in a special position.
