Abstract: In the title compound, [RuCl(C₁₈H₁₈N₄)(C₂H₆OS)][RuCl₃(C₂H₆OS)₃], all the dimethyl sulfoxide (dmso) ligands coordinate through the S atom. In the anion, three chlorides and three dmso ligands form an octahedral coordination around the Ru atom in a facial coordination. In the cation, a chloride ligand is located trans to the amine-N atom and cis to the dmso ligand.
