Figure 2
(a) Illustration of the asymmetric unit rendering the disorder of the hexa­fluorido­phosphate anions and aceto­nitrile solvate mol­ecules (see Refinement section for details). An additional ππ stacked [Ru(L–N4H2)tape]2+ cation demonstrates, due to the view along the normal of the tape ligand's r.m.s. plane, the nearly face-to-face ππ stacking motif between the tape ligand moieties. The atomic numbering is shown for the anions and solvent mol­ecules as well as for the ruthenium atoms. Hydrogen atoms are omitted for clarity. [Symmetry codes: (ii) 1 − x, −y, 1 −z, (ix) 1 −x, 1 −y, −z.] (b) A side view of the dimer formed by two [Ru(L–N4H2)tape]2+ in [Ru(L–N4H2)tape](PF6)2·1.422CH3CN, featuring the stacking inter­actions via planar tape ligand moieties. Only H atoms essential for illustration of the hydrogen bonds, shown as orange dashed lines, are included.
