Abstract
The title compound, [Ru(CHO2)(C10H8N2)(C15H11N3)(CO)]PF6 or cis-[Ru(bpy)(η2-tpy)(CO)(COOH)]PF6 (where bpy is 2,2′-bipyridyl and tpy is 2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridyl), has distorted octahedral geometry about the Ru atom, a bidentate terpyridyl ligand and a fully chelated bipyridyl ligand. The terminal carbonyl and carboxyl groups are cis. The Ru—C—O angle (terminal carbonyl) is distorted from linearity [173.7 (4)°] by the pendant pyridyl group of the N,N′-bound tpy ligand, which is hydrogen bonded to the hydroxyl proton of the carboxyl group.
