Notes:
In the cation of the title complex, cis,cis,cis-[Ru(η2-O2CMe)(dppe)2]PF6·2MeOH [dppe is 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino)ethane, C26H24P2], the Ru atom is in a pseudo-octahedral coordination environment with two chelating dppe ligands and one chelating acetate ligand. Intra-phosphine and intra-acetate bond lengths and angles are unexceptional. Deviations from idealized octahedral coordination angles at ruthenium [O—Ru—O 59.43 (8)° and P—Ru—P 103.19 (2)°] presumably derive from constraints imposed by the chelate rings. The Ru—P distances for the mutually trans P-donor atoms [2.3785 (6) Å] are significantly longer than those for the Ru—P linkages trans to the acetate ligand [2.3074 (6) Å]. The Ru1, C1 and C2 atoms lie on a twofold axis, and atom P3 of the anion lies on an inversion centre.
