The title salt, [Ru(Tp)(CH5N)2(PPh3)]Cl·CH2Cl2·H2O [where Tp is (C3H3N2)3BH and PPH3 is C18H15P], has the RuIII atom in an octahedral geometry; one of the Ru-N(Tp) bonds [2.135 (8) Å] is slightly longer than another two, owing to the trans influence of PPh3 ligand. N-H...Cl and O-H...Cl hydrogen bonding leads to the formation of layers parallel to (100).
