| Abstract: | The chiral compound (H2cydiampy)RuCl3(p‐cymene)]2 has been obtained in high yield by treating RuCl2(p‐cymene)]2 with an excess of hydrochloric acid in the presence of one equivalent of N,N′‐bis‐(6‐methylpyrid‐2‐yl)‐(1R,2R)‐1,2‐diaminocyclohexane (cydiampy). It crystallizes in the chiral tetragonal space group P43212, with half of the atoms of the dication related to the other half by a crystallographic C2 axis that also makes equivalent the two anionic metal moieties.
