| Abstract: | Abstract . Treatment of the hydrazine salt [Ru(COD)(H2NNH2)4][BPh4]2 with excess of P(OMe)2Ph in acetone gave a homoleptic complex trans‐[Ru{P(OMe)2Ph}6][BPh4]2, which was characterized by IR, 31P{1H}, 13C{1H}, and 1H NMR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X‐ray crystallography. The ruthenium in the complex has distorted octahedral coordination arrangement and bonded to all the six P(OMe)2Ph molecules through the phosphorus atoms. |
