✦ Synopsis
The crystal structure of the neutral Ru II complex [RuCl 2 ( 6 ± C 10 H 14 )(C 2 H 6 OS)] is reported. The overall coordination geometry about the ruthenium centre is best described as a typical `piano stool'. In the p-cymene ligand, the six C atoms of the arene ring are in a planar con®guration, as expected.

The title dinuclear complex, [Ru 2 (C 10 H 14 )Cl 4 H], has twofold symmetry. The terminal Cl atom interacts with three CÐH H atoms of symmetry-related neighbouring molecules. These interactions play a key role in the packing arrangement.
