Abstract

The bimetallic cyano-bridged [(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2Ru(μ-CN)Ru(PPh3)2(η5-C5H5)][PF6] (1) was prepared by reaction of [(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2RuCl] with N,N′-bis(cyanomethyl)ethylenediamine. The single crystal structure determined by X-ray diffraction showed crystallization on the triclinic P1 space group with a perfect alignment of the cyanide bridges. This accentric crystallization was explored having in view the NLO properties at the macroscopic level, determined by the Kurtz Powder technique. Besides the very low efficiency values for the second harmonic generation, the value obtained for the bimetallic complex 1 showed to be higher than one of the parent complex [(η5-C5H5)(PPh3)2RuCN] (2).
