Abstract
The title compound, [RuCl2(C18H26BrP)2]·1.6CH3OH, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2/n with two and a half mol-ecules plus four mol-ecules of methanol solvent in the asymmetric unit (Z' = 5/2, Z = 10). Distortion of the octahedral coordination environment results in the slight variation of bond lengths and bond angles from ideal values. The crystal packing is reinforced by classical hydrogen bonding, O-H⋯X (where X = O or Cl) and non-classical hydrogen bonding inter-actions such as C-H⋯Cl.
