Abstract
The lemon-yellow crystals (1) obtained by reaction of the red ‘carbonyl-containing’ ruthenium solution with SnCl2 and PPh3 in acetone have been shown to be [RuCl(SnCl3)(CO)(PPh3)2(OCMe2)]·Me2CO and not [Ru2Cl3(SnCl3)(CO)2(PPh3)2(OCMe2)2](3) as previously suggested. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P21/c with a= 11.950(3), b= 14.988(3), c= 24.916(2)Å, and β= 92.51(1)°. The structure has been solved with 3 601 diffractometer data and refined to R 0.037. It is, however, possible to obtain (3) by warming (1) in benzene, but it readily loses SnCl2 to give some [(Ph3P)(OC)ClRuCl3Ru(CO)(PPh3)2].Keywords
