Abstract
The synthesis and structural characterization of the complex [Ru(eta (6)-C6 H6)(eta (6)-C6H4(CH3)COOCH3)][BF4](2) (2) and of its precursor [Ru(eta (6)- C6H4(CH3)COOCH3)Cl-2](2) (1) are reported. Compound (2) has been characteri zed in two polymorphic modifications (2a and 2b) and the molecular organiza tion in the solid state has been investigated. The complex [Ru(eta (5)-C5H5 )(eta (6)-C6H5OH)][PF6] (3) has also been investigated; it has been shown t o possess a disorder similar to that observed in the high temperature phase of related systems such as [Ru(eta (5)-C5H5)(eta (6)-C6H6)][PF6].
