Abstract

The structure of the title compound, [RuCl2(C7H10N2)2(C2H6OS)2], has monoclinic (P21/n) symmetry. The Ru-N distances of the coordination compound are influenced by the trans chloride or di-methyl-sulfoxide-κS ligands. The mol-ecular structure exhibits disorder for two of the terminal methyl groups of a dimethyl sulfoxide ligand.

Keywords: DMAP; coordination compound; crystal structure; dmso; ruthenium(II).
