Abstract

The title complex crystallizes in the centrosymmetric monoclinic space group C2/c (No. 15) withZ=8. The structure was refined toR=4.49% for those 2745 independent reflections with 2θ=5–50o and |F σ|>6σ(F). Ruthenium-ligand distances are as follows: Ru-P=2.284(2) and 2.286(2) Å, Ru-NO2=2.049(6) Å and Ru-C(Cp)=2.210(10)-2.246(9) Å. Bond lengths within the nitro ligand are N(1)-O(1)=1.226(10) Å and N(1)-O(2)=1.244(10) Å. The methanol of solvation is ordered but is subject to large thermal vibrational motions.
