In the title compound, [Ru(C(10)H(8)N(2))(2)(C(21)H(18)N(4)O(4))](PF(6))(2), the Ru(II) complex cation reveals a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination. The coordination bonds of the 4,4'-substituted bipyridyl donors [Ru-N = 2.038 (3) and 2.051 (3) Å] are shorter than those of the 2,2'-bipyridyl donors [Ru-N1 = 2.065 (3)-2.077 (3) Å], due to the electron-withdrawing effects of the substituents at the 4,4'-positions. The angles between the pyridyl planes of the three bipyridyl ligands are 1. ...[more]
