[μ₂-Bis(di-phenyl-phosphan-yl)hexa-ne]bis-[undeca-carbonyl-triangulo-triruthenium(3 Ru-Ru)] hexane monosolvate: crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis.

ABSTRACT: In the title cluster complex hexane solvate, [Ru₆(C₃₀H₃₂P₂)(CO)₂₂]·C₆H₁₄, two Ru₃(CO)₁₁ fragments are linked by a Ph₂P(CH₂)₆PPh₂ bridge with the P atoms equatorially disposed with respect to the Ru₃ triangle in each case; the hexane solvent mol-ecule is statistically disordered. The Ru⋯Ru distances span a relatively narrow range, i.e. 2.8378 (4) to 2.8644 (4) Å. The hexyl chain within the bridge has an all-trans conformation. In the mol-ecular packing, C-H⋯O inter-actions between cluster mol-ecules, and between cluster and hexane solvent mol-ecules lead to a three-dimensional architecture. In addition, there are a large numb
