Tris(1,10-phenanthroline)ruthenium(II) Bis(hexafluorophosphate)

Racemic Compound FormationversusConglomerate Formation with [M(bpy)3](PF6)2 (M = Ni, Zn, Ru); Molecular and Crystal Structures

“…Despite the spatial restraints imposed by the coordination, ''πϪπ interactions'' are frequently observed in crystal structures of neutral {[Ru(bpy) 3 ] [50] } and, more surprisingly, charged propeller-shaped molecules of the type investigated here {[Ru(bpym) 3 ](PF 6 ) 2 ·CH 3 CN, [15] [Ru(phen) 3 ](PF 6 ) 2 [13] }. The ''coordination'' of the cations by anions is quite similar in both the γ-and β-type structures.…”

“…The smaller the kink and the trigonal twist, the ''taller'' the complex Figure 6.

Cell Cycle Arrest, Cytotoxicity, Apoptosis, DNA‐Binding, Photocleavage, and Antioxidant Activity of Octahedral Ruthenium(II) Complexes

“…An ORTEP drawing of the cation with the atomic numbering scheme is depicted in Figure 1. Crystal data, selected bond lengths, and bond angles are collected in Table 4 [8] and comparable to those found for [Ru(dmp) 2 (fpp)] 2+ (2.088 Å). [9] The dihedral angle between the two dmp planes is 67.6°.…”

A 1,10-Phenanthroline-Ligatedcloso-Ruthenaundecaborane: [(C12H8N2)RuB10H8(OC2H5)2]

“…The bidentate phen ligand coordinates to the Ru atom with Ru--N distances of 2.117 (2) and 2.128 (2) A. These bonds are significantly longer than the corresponding Ru--Nphen bond lengths in the literature, for example, 2.056 (8) and 2.082 (9)A, for [Ru(bipy)2-(phen)] 2+ (Ye et al, 1995), where bipy is 2,2t-bipyridine, 2.096 (5)-2.100 (5) A for [Ru(phen)2(py)2] 2÷ (Bonneson et al, 1983), where py is pyridine, and an average of 2.063 (4) A, for [Ru(phen)3] 2+ (Breu & Stoll, 1996)…”
