by Green, M.; Draganjac, M.; Jiang, Y. J.; Cordes, A. W.

The isolation and characterization of [CpRu(9S3)](O3SCF3), where 9S3 = 1,4,7-trithiacyclononane, is reported. The title compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca: a = 10.2542(18), b = 14.8991(13), c = 22.4832(18) Angstrom, and Z = 8. The Ru atom is sandwiched between the rr-bound cyclopentadienyl ligand and the 983 ligand, bonding to all three of the sulfur atoms in the 9S3. The Ru-S distances are 2.2991(10), 2.2979(11), and 2.3055(10) a. The C-S distances range from 1.819(4) to 1.852(5) Angstrom in the trithiacyclononane ring.
