Abstract
Ruthenium(II) complexes containing nine pyrimidine-2-thione [Ru(L-N,S) (bpy)(2)](+) (HL = pyrimidine-2-thione; bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) are pre pared and characterized. Two linkage isomers exist for most of the com plexes with unsymmetrical ligands. The isomeric ratios are interpreted by CH/pi attractive interaction between the 4- or 6-alkyl group of th e thione ligands and the pi-system of bpy.
