Dicarbonyl-dichlorido(N,N,N′,N′-tetra-methyl-ethylenediamine) -ruthenium(II)

Abstract

In the title compound, [RuC l2(C 6H 16N 2)(CO) 2], the geometry around the Ru II atom is a distorted RuC 2N 2C l2 octa-hedron, with pairs of C and Cl atoms trans to each other and the N atoms of the bidentate ligand in a cis conformation. The five-membered chelate ring is puckered on the C - C bond. © Baghlaf et al. 2011.
