In the title compound, [RuCl2(C6H14N2)(C28H28P2)]·CH2Cl2,
the RuII ion is coordinated in a slightly distorted octahedral
environment, formed by two cis-oriented chloride ligands, two cis
P atoms of a 1,4-bis(diphenylphosphanyl)butane ligand and two cis-chelating
N atoms of a bidentate cyclohexane-1,2-diamine ligand. In the crystal, pairs
of molecules form inversion dimers via N—HCl hydrogen
bonds. In addition, intramolecular N—H
Cl and weak C—H
Cl, C—H
N, N—H
π and C—H
π hydrogen
bonds are observed. One of the Cl atoms of the solvent molecule is disordered
over two sites with refined occupancies of 0.62 (1) and 0.38 (1).
