15. The values were obtained with the B3LYP method associated with a double-ζ quality basis set (LANL2DZ) with an f polarization function added to Ru and 6-31++-HG(d,p) for the main group elements; Ru was treated with the effective core potential developed by Hay and Wadt. Single point energies were also calculated with Moller-Plesset (MP2) method at the B3LYP optimized geometries. To account for solvation effects, single point solvation free energies were estimated with a continuum model at the IEF-PCM level. For further details, see the Supporting Information.

All hydrogen atoms were included in the structure factor calculation at idealized positions and were allowed to ride on the neighboring atoms with relative isotropic displacement coefficients.
