2-chlorido-bis[chlorido(
6-hexamethylbenzene)ruthenium(II)]Abstract: Dimeric molecules of the title compound, [Ru2Cl4(C12H18)2], are located on a crystallographic centre of inversion with one molecule in the asymmetric unit. The hexamethylbenzene rings are in an
6-coordination to the ruthenium centres, which are bridged by two chloride ligands. In addition, the ruthenium centres are bonded to another chloride ligand. The aromatic rings and the Ru2Cl2 four-membered ring enclose a dihedral angle of 55.85 (6)°.
