The average Ru-N distances in the complex cations are 2.063, 2.089, and 2.119 Å, severally. The substituents in the ligands exert a strong influence on the geometry of the coordination core, which deviates significantly from regular octahedral. The deviation is most marked for the dimethyl-substituted system where pronounced inter-ligand forces result in gross angular distortion of the relative orientations of the three ligand molecules. © 2004 Elsevier B.V.
