- 6 The single crystal was grown from a dichloromethane/diethyl ether/hexane mixed solvent at room temperature. X-ray crystallographic analysis was performed with a Bruker SMART 1000 diffractometer (graphite monochromator, MoKα radiation, λ=0.71073 Å). Crystal data for [RuCl2((R)-dm-dabn)((R)-binap)]: C66H52Cl2N2P2Ru, reddish-orange, crystal dimensions 0.07×0.17×0.22 mm, orthorhombic, space group P21212 (No. 18), a=20.822(3), b=22.130(3), c=13.1320(18) Å, V=6051.2(14) Å3, Z=4, ρcalcd=1.215 gcm−3, μ(MoKα)=1.43 cm−1, T=103 K, 10 304 reflections were independent and unique, and 6256 with I>2σ(I) (2θmax=24.7°) were used. The structure was solved by direct methods and expanded using Fourier techniques. The non-hydrogen atoms were refined anisotropically. Hydrogen atoms were included but not refined. R=0.095, wR2=0.2116.
