The structure of the title complex, [FeRu(C5H5)(C5H4OPS2)(CO)(C18H15P)2(H2O)]·CH2Cl2, consists of one neutral [{FcP(O)S2}Ru(CO)(H2O)(PPh3)2] complex [Fc = Fe(η5-C5H4)(η5-C5H5)] and one CH2Cl2 solvent molecule. The geometry around the RuII atom is pseudo-octahedral, with two cis-binding PPh3 ligands and one chelating bidentate [Fc(O)PS2]2− ligand via two S atoms. The average Ru—S and Ru—P bond lengths are 2.434 (1) and 2.398 (1) Å, and the Ru—O and Ru—C bond lengths are 2.157 (3) and 1.826 (4) Å, respectively. In the crystal, pairs of O—H...O hydrogen bonds link adjacent molecules into dimers.
