Undeca-carbon-yl[(4-methyl-sulfanylphen-yl)di-phenyl-phosphane]triruthenium(0): crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis.

ABSTRACT: The title cluster compound, [Ru3(C19H17PS)(CO)11], comprises a triangle of Ru0 atoms, two of which are bonded to four carbonyl ligands. The third metal atom is bound to three carbonyl ligands and the phosphane-P atom of a dissymmetric phosphane ligand, PPh2(C6H4SMe-4); no Ru?S inter-actions are observed. The phosphane occupies an equatorial position and its proximity to an Ru-Ru edge results in the elongation of this bond with respect to the others [2.8933?(2)?Å cf. 2.8575?(2) and 2.8594?(3)?Å]. In the crystal, phenyl-C-H?O(carbon-yl) and carbonyl-O?O(carbon-yl) [2.817?(2)?Å] inter-actions combine to form a supra-molecular chain propagating along [111]; the chains pack without directional inter-actions between them. The carbonyl-O?O(carbon-yl) and other weak contacts have an influence upon the Hirshfeld surfaces with O?H contacts making the greatest contribution, i.e. 37.4% cf. 15.8% for O?O and 15.6% for H?H contacts.
