Abstract
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C14H17N2S2)[Ru(C10H14)Cl3], contains a 1,3-bis(thiophen-2-ylmethyl)-3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidinium cation and a trichlorido(η6-p-cymene)ruthenate(II) anion. The Ru atom exhibits a distorted octahedral coordination with the benzene ring of the p-cymene ligand formally occupying three sites and three chloride atoms occupying the other three sites. The N—C bond lengths of the N—C—N unit of the pyrimidinium cation are shorter than the average single C—N bond length of 1.48 Å, thus showing double-bond character, indicating a partial electron delocalization within the N—C—N fragment. The pyrimidine ring has an envelope conformation. Four intermolecular C—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds generate a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded framework.
