Abstract

trans-[Ru(SO3H)2(NH3)4], monoclinic, space group P2(l)/n, Z = 2, a = 619.4(3), b = 701.8(3), c = 1068.6(6) pm, beta = 96.32(3)-degrees. In the centrosymmetric octahedral complex the two independent Ru-N bonds are equal within experimental error (average Ru-N 214.0 pm). The rather short Ru-S bonds (227.6 pm) indicate a very weak trans-influence of the -SO3H ligand. Caused by the protonation, one of the S-O bonds in the -SO3H ligand is long (161.4 pm), the other two are short (mean 148.0 pm). The complex units are linked by pairs of O-H . . . O hydrogen bonds (268.9 pm) to form rods parallel b (symmetry (b).1BAR), which in turn are held together by N-H . . . O bonds in a pseudo-hexagonal array. A packing coefficient of 0.76 is estimated.
