(2-Aminoethanethiolato-κ²N,S)bis[1,2-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)ethane-κ²P,P′]ruthenium(II) hexafluoridophosphate

Abstract

In the crystal of the title compound, [Ru(C2H6NS)(C26H24P2)2]PF6, the RuII atom is in a slightly distorted octa­hedral geometry, coordinated by one 2-amino­ethane­thiol­ate (aet) and two 1,2-bis­(diphenyl­phosphan­yl)ethane (dppe) ligands. The crystal consists of a pair of enanti­omers (Δ and Λ) of the compound. The Δ and Λ isomers have the λ and δ conformations for the aet chelate rings and the δ and λ conformations for the dppe chelate rings. The F atoms of the PF6 − counter-anion are disordered over three positions, with site occupancies of 0.4, 0.3 and 0.3.
