The aromatic ligand of the title compound is linked to the Ru 6 unit through η 6 ‐aryl and μ‐OR coordination as well as an MCM three‐center bond (see picture at the right). Noteworthy are the high “loading” of the ligand with metal atoms and the fact that multiple coordination can also stabilize a very open metal arrangement.
