Dichlorido[1-(2-methylbenzyl)-3-(η6-2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl)-1H-2,3-dihydrobenzimidazol-2-ylidene]ruthenium(II) dichloromethane solvate

Dichlorido[1-(2-methylbenzyl)-3-(η6-2,4,6-trimethylbenzyl)-1H-2,3-dihydrobenzimidazol-2-ylidene]ruthenium(II) dichloromethane solvate

The title complex, [RuCl2(C25H26N2)]·CH2Cl2, is best thought of as containing an octahedrally coordinated Ru center with the arene occupying three sites. Two Ru—Cl bonds and one Ru–carbene bond complete the distorted octahedron. The carbene portion of the lig...
