The title compound was prepared by the method reported in Mashima et al. (1997). The monomer to dimer ratios in solution at different temperatures were estimated by integration of 1H NMR spectra in toluene-d8. The 1H NMR chemical shifts of monomer and dimer have been reported (Mashima et al., 1997). Crystals were obtained at 253 K by slow diffusion of pentane vapour into a solution of the complex in dichloromethane.

Geometry. All e.s.d.'s (except the e.s.d. in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell e.s.d.'s are taken into account individually in the estimation of e.s.d.'s in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between e.s.d.'s in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell e.s.d.'s is used for estimating e.s.d.'s involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > σ(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

This work is part of a project dealing with the synthesis and reactivity of binuclear complexes containing bridging benzene-1,2-dithiolate ligands (Cabeza et al., 1998, 1999). The nuclearity of the [Ru(bdt)(arene)]x compounds (bdt is benzene-1,2-dithiolate) is strongly dependent on temperature and the nature of the substituents of the arene ring, i.e. [Ru(bdt)(C6Me6)] is a monomer in the solid state and in solution at any temperature, while [Ru(bdt)(C6H6)] and [Ru(bdt)(cym)] exist in solution in equilibrium with their dimers (Mashima et al., 1997). With the aim of studying its reactivity with other metal complexes, [Ru(bdt)(cym)]x (cym is p-cymene) was prepared and it was observed that, first, in solution, at 298 K, a ca 1:1 equilibrium mixture of the monomer and the dimer exists (see Scheme below), secondly, in solution, but at temperatures above 298 K, the monomer predominates (a 4:1 ratio was observed at 353 K), while at lower temperatures, the dimer is in higher ratio, e.g. at 213 K, only the dimer was noticed, and thirdly, only the dimer exists in the solid state. We report here the structural details of the dimer [Ru2(bdt)2(cym)2], (I).
The dimer crystallizes in P1. The asymmetric unit consists of one-half of the dimer, i.e. a monomeric unit, [Ru(bdt)(cym)], with the other half being generated by a centre of symmetry at (0,1/2,1/2). The monomeric units are linked through two Ru—S bonds, Ru1—S1i [2.364 (2) Å; symmetry code: -x, 1 - y, 1 - z] and Ru1—S2i [2.386 (2) Å], i.e. each Ru atom is bonded to three S atoms (S1, S1i and S2i) from two bdt ligands apart from its coordination to the benzene ring of the p-cymene ligand.
Although other related compounds, such as [Ru2(bdt)2(C5Me5)2] (Ru–Ru) (Hörnig et al., 1994) and [Rh2(bdt)2(C5Me5)2] (Russell et al., 1978), are known, structure details have not been reported.
