Tricarbonylchloroglycinatoruthenium(II) is an organoruthenium complex with the formula RuCl(H2NCH2CO2)(CO)3.
A yellow solid, it is an amino acid complex consisting of an octahedral complex with three carbonyls, chloride, and bidentate glycinate ligands.
The CO ligands are arranged in a facial geometry.
The complex is prepared by treating dichlororuthenium tricarbonyl dimer with sodium glycinate.
[1] The complex has attracted attention as a CO-releasing molecule ("CORM").
