According to recent research from Montreal, Canada, "The title compound, [Ru(C10H8N2)(2)(C13H7N3S)](PF6)(2)center dot-CH3CN, was synthesized by the reaction of thiophosgene and bis(2,2'-bipyridine)(1,10-phenanthrolin-5-amine) ruthenium(II) bis(hexafluoridophosphate)."
"The Ru-II atom adopts a slightly distorted octahedral RuN6 coordinaton formed by four N atoms of two bipyridine ligands and by two N atoms of the 1,10-phenantroline ligand. The isothiocyanate group is almost linear, with an N-C-S angle of 174.4 (6)degrees," wrote S. Nag and colleagues, University of Montreal.
The researchers concluded: "Two of the three hexafluoridophosphate ...
