Abstract

The complex [Ru(bpy)2(dbneil)][PF6]2 forms discrete dimers in solution held by strong π–π stacking interactions via its distorted dibenzoeilatin ligand, indicating that planarity is not an obligatory requirement for achieving strong π-stacking, as long as complementarity between the stacking moieties can be achieved.
