Abstract

Reaction of [Ru(Tp)Cl(PPh(3))(2)] (Tp = hydridotrispyrazolyl-borate) with ammonium dithio-benzoate in methanol leads to the formation of the title compound, [Ru(C(9)H(10)BN(6))(C(7)H(5)S(2))(C(18)H(15)P)]. In the crystal structure, the Ru atom is coordinated by three N atoms of the Tp ligand, one P atom of the triphenyl-phosphine ligand and the two S atoms of the dithio-benzoate ligand within a slightly distorted octa-hedron. The Ru-S bonds are slightly different [2.321 (1) and 2.396 (1) Å] and the average N-Ru-N angle is 86.31°.
