[μ-Bis(diphenyl-arsino)methane-1:2κAs:As']nona-carbonyl-1κC,2κC,3κC-(triphenyl phosphite-3κP)-triangulo-triruthenium(0).

ABSTRACT: The asymmetric unit of the title triangulo-triruthenium compound, [Ru(3)(C(25)H(22)As(2))(C(18)H(15)O(3)P)(CO)(9)], contains two crystallographically independent but similar mol-ecules. The bis-(diphenyl-arsino)methane ligand bridges an Ru-Ru bond and the monodentate phosphite ligand bonds to the third Ru atom. Both the phosphite and arsine ligands are equatorial with respect to the Ru(3) triangle. In addition, each Ru atom carries one equatorial and two axial terminal carbonyl ligands. One of the triphenyl-phosphite benzene rings in one of the mol-ecules is disordered over two positions with refined site occupancies of 0.60 (3) and 0.40 (3). In the crystal packing, the mol-ecules are stacked along a axis. Intra-molecular C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds stabilize the mol-ecular structure and weak int
