Abstract: The title compound, [Ru₂Fe₂(C₅H₅)₂(C₉H₁₁N₂S)₂(CO)₄]·CH₂Cl₂ or [FcC(Me)=NNHC(S)NHMe]₂Ru₂(CO)₄·CH₂Cl₂ (where Fc = ferrocenyl), was isolated from the reaction of FcC(Me)=NNHC(S)NHMe and Ru₃(CO)₁₂. In the dimeric molecule, which lies on a crystallographic twofold axis, the two symmetry-related Ru atoms are in distorted octahedral coordination environments with two bridging S atoms in the equatorial plane and Ru-S bond distances of 2.514 (2) and 2.451 (2) Å.
