Crystal and molecular structure of acetatocarbonyl(N-p-tolylformimidoyl)bis(triphenylphosphine)ruthenium(II)

Abstract
The crystal and molecular structure of the title compound has been determined by the heavy-atom method from three-dimensional X-ray data collected by counter methods. Crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c, with Z= 4 in a unit cell of dimensions a= 9.947(4), b= 14.680(4), c= 28.014(5)Å, and β= 92.08(2)°. Blockdiagonal least-squares refinement gave R of 0.057 for 2 519 observed reflections. The geometry about the metal is that of a distorted octahedron with carbonyl, N-p-tolylformimidoyl, and bidentate acetate groups forming a plane and the two triphenylphosphine groups occupying the remaining trans-positions.
