(5S)-5-Methyl-3-phenyl-2-sulfanyl­idene-1,3-thia­zolidin-4-one

In the title mol­ecule, C₁₀H₉NOS₂, the 2-sulfanyl­idene­thia­zolidin-4-one mean plane and phenyl ring form a dihedral angle of 81.7 (1)°. In the crystal, C—H...π inter­actions link mol­ecules into helical chains in [010].

cis-Bis(acetonitrile-κN)bis­(2,2′-bipyridine-κ²N,N′)ruthenium(II) tetra­fluoridoborate

In the cation of the title compound, [Ru(CH₃CN)₂(C₁₀H₈N₂)₂](BF₄)₂, the Ru^II atom is six-coordinated in a distorted octa­hedral geometry by the N atoms of the two 2,2′-bipyridine (bpy) ligands and two cis-arranged acetonitrile mol­ecules. The dihedral angles formed by the pyridine rings of the bpy ligands are 8.86 (12) and 10.12 (14)°. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked by C—H...F hydrogen bonds into a three-dimensional network.
