In the cation of the title complex, [RuCl(NO)(C12H12N2)2](PF6)2, the central RuII ion is sixfold coordinated by a chloride ion and a nitrosyl ligand, which are cis to one another, and by four N atoms of two 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine ligands, in a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. One of the PF6- anions is located in a general position, while the other is composed of two half PF6- anions located on twofold rotation axes. The crystal packing is dominated by C-H...F hydrogen bonds, leading to the formation of a three-dimensional supramolecular structure. There are also C-H...Cl hydrogen bonds present.
