In the title complex, [Ru(C12H24O4S2)3](PF6)2.2H2O.CH3OH, the RuII ion lies on a crystallographic threefold axis and is coordinated to three symmetry-equivalent macrocyclic ligands via their S donor atoms [Ru--S 2.3620 (9) and 2.3859 (9) Å]. The macrocycle adopts a typical bidentate chelating coordination mode with S donors in exo and O donors in endo orientations.
