Abstract

The title complexes [(HMB)Ru(NO₃)₂] (HMB = η⁶-C₆Me₆) (1) and [(HMB)Ru(O ₂CCF₃)₂(H₂O)] (2) were spectroscopically characterized and their structures were determined by single-crystal diffraction analysis. In both compounds, the Ru atom is η⁶-coordinated to a hexamethylbenzene ring and three oxygen donor atoms in a "three-legged piano stool" arrangement. In the asymmetric unit of 1, ruthenium atom is coordinated to two nitrato ligands, one of which is η¹-O coordinated and the second bidentate via both oxygen atoms; while in the symmetric unit of 2, two disordered trifluoroacetate ligands are monodentate, symmetrically bound to the ruthenium atom, and the pseudo-octahedral geometry is completed by an oxygen atom from a H₂O molecule, which is hydrogen-bonded to both acetate ligands.
