Abstract

The title compound, [Ru2(C2H3O 2)4(C15H16N2O 2)2], lies on a crystallographic inversion center and exhibits an Ru-Ru bond length of 2.2847 (8) Å. There are weak intramolecular hydrogen-bonding interactions between the N1,N 2-di-p-anisyl-formamidine (HDAniF) ligands and the bridging acetate ligands. The molecule is one of the few examples of a crystallographically characterized axial bis-adduct of a (Ru2}4+ complex with two N-donor ligands.
