Abstract

The title compound, [Ru3(C12H12N)3(CO3)(C6H6)3]PF6·CH2Cl2, was obtained unintentionally as the product of an attempted deprotonation of the monomeric parent ruthenium complex [Ru(C12H12N)(C6H6)(C2H3N)]PF6. The carbonate ligand bridges three half-sandwich cyclo­ruthenated fragments, each of them exhibiting a pseudo-tetra­hedral geometry. The configuration of the Ru atoms is S. The naphthyl groups of the enanti­opure cyclo­ruthenated benzylic amine ligands point in the same direction, adopting a propeller shape.
