Item Crystal Structure of (Cycloocta-1,5-diene)tris(hydrazine)hydridoruthenium( II) tetraphenylborate(The Japan Society for Analytical Chemistry, 2012-04-18) OWALUDE, Samson O.; EKE, Uche B.; ODEBUNMI, Ezekiel O.; NESTEROV, Vladimir N.; MEIJBOOM, Reinout; COVILLE, Neil J.The salt [RuH(COD)(H2NNH2)3][BPh4] (2) (COD = cycloocta-1,5-diene and BPh4 = tetraphenylborate) was prepared by reacting the polymeric species [{Ru(COD)Cl2}x] (1; x > 2) with hydrazine hydrate in refluxing ethanol. The obtained crystal was characterized by single-crystal X-ray analysis. The compound crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/n with unit-cell dimensions a = 9.7449(8)Å, b = 32.881(3)Å, c = 18.6962(16)Å, b = 99.571(10)˚, V = 5907.3(9)Å3 and Z = 8. The ruthenium has a distorted octahedral geometry with two formula units comprising two cations and two anions in the asymmetric unit.
