Abstract

The reaction of [Ru 3 III (μ3-O)(μ-O2CCF3)6(H2O)3](O2CCF3) in methanol gives two solvates, [Ru3O(O2CCF3)6(DMSO)3] · 1/2H2O (I) and [Ru3O(O2CCF3)6(DMSO)3] · H2O (II), of a novel trinuclear mixedvalence Ru(II,III,III) trifluoroacetate complex, where two DMSO molecules are coordinated to the Ru atoms through the O atom, while the third DMSO molecule is coordinated through the S atom. According to the X-ray diffraction data, the complex can crystallize in two crystal systems: triclinic (I) (space group P $$\overline 1 $$ ) and monoclinic (II) (space group P21/m). The unit cell parameters for I are: a = 9.354, b = 11.005, c = 20.846 A, α = 99.10, β = 96.38, γ = 92.17, Z = 2; R = 7.27%; for I are: a = 9.186, b = 17.044, c = 13.091 A, β = 101.10, Z = 2; R = 14.18%.
