Bis­[μ-(S)-1-(1-ferrocenyl­ethyl­idene)-4-methyl­thio­semicarbazide-κ2C2,N,S:S]­bis­(di­carbonyl­ruthenium) dichloro­methane solvate

The title compound, [Ru2Fe2(C5H5)2(C9H11N2S)2(CO)4]·CH2Cl2 or [FcC(Me)=NNHC(S)NHMe]2Ru2(CO)4·CH2Cl2 (where Fc = ferrocenyl), was isolated from the reaction of FcC(Me)=NNHC(S)NHMe and Ru3(CO)12. In the dimeric mol­ecule, which lies on a crystallographic twofold axis, the two symmetry-related Ru atoms are in distorted octahedral coordination environments with two bridging S atoms in the equatorial plane and Ru—S bond distances of 2.514 (2) and 2.451 (2) A.
