The structure was solved from X-ray data. FinalR indices areR(F)=0.051,R _w (F)=0.049 (X-ray);R(F)=0.064,R _w (F)=0.048,R(F ²)=0.072,R _w (F²)=0.088 (neutron). The complex is derived from Ru₃(CO)₈(dpam)₂ through reaction with hydrogen. The structure consists of a triangular array of metal atoms involving three metal-metal bonds[Ru(1)?Ru(2)=2.912(7)Å;Ru(1)?Ru(3)=2.829(3) A; Ru(2)?Ru(3)=2.845(6) Å]. The metal-metal edge Ru(1)?Ru(2) is supported by a bridging bis(diphenylarsino)methane ligand which lies in the equatorial plane. Activation of the second dpam ligand has generated the new face-bridging ligand unit μ-As(C₆H₅)CH₂As(C₆H₅)₂. In this unit, the bridgehead As atom spans over the Ru(1)?Ru(2) bond, while the second As atom is only bonded to Ru(3). The metal environment is achieved by CO ligands. The hydride ligand is bridging the Ru(1)?Ru(2) vector [Ru(1)?H=1.791(10) Å; Ru(2)?H=1.818(8) Å]. Geometric features of the dibridged Ru(μ-H)(μ-As)Ru bond are discussed.
