title: Chlorido(chloro-diphenyl-phosphine-κP)(diphenyl-piperidinophosphine-κP)(η-penta-methyl-cyclo-penta-dien-yl)ruthenium(II).
abstract: The title compound, [Ru(C(10)H(15))Cl(C(12)H(10)ClP)(C(17)H(20)NP)], is a half-sandwich complex of Ru(II) with the chloro-diphenyl-phosphine ligand formed from the diphenyl-piperidinophosphine and chlorine of the precursor complex [Ru(η(5)-C(5)Me(5))(κ(1)P-Ph(2)PNC(5)H(10))Cl(2)] by an unexpected reaction with NaBH(4). The complex has a three-legged piano-stool geometry, with Ru-P bond lengths of 2.2598 (5) Å for the chloro-phosphine and 2.3303 (5) Å for the amino-phosphine.
