Dinuclear ruthenium nitrido complexes supported by the Kläui's tripodal ligand [CpCo{P(O)(OEt)(2)}(3)](-) (L(OEt)(-)) have been synthesized starting from the ruthenium(VI) nitrido precursor [L(OEt)Ru(VI)(N)Cl(2)] (1). Heating a solution of 1 in CCl(4) at reflux, followed by recrystallization from hexane under nitrogen, afforded the mixed-valence ruthenium(V)-ruthenium(IV) μ-nitrido complex [L(O...

accelerated deactivation of co/al2o3 catalysts in fischer-tropsch synthesis and the effect of re and ru as the catalytic promoters are reported. 15wt% co/al2o3 catalyst and 1wt% ru and 1.4wt% re  promoted cobalt catalysts have been formulated and extensively characterized. the deactivation of the unpromoted cobalt catalyst and those promoted with re and ru were studied by accelerated method at ...

In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Ru(3)(C(9)H(11)P)H(2)(C(18)H(15)P)(CO)(8)], the triangular Ru(3) unit is capped with one mesitylphosphin-idene ligand. In the trigonal-pyramidal Ru(3)P core, one Ru(II) atom is coordinated by a triphenyl-phosphane ligand in a terminal fashion. Two hydride ligands bridge over two Ru-Ru bonds. These Ru-Ru bonds [2.9400 (4) and 2.9432 (4) Å] are sli...

In these proceedings, we present the measurements of neutron skin thickness and nuclear deformation using isobar $^{96}_{44}$Ru+$^{96}_{44}$Ru $^{96}_{40}$Zr+$^{96}_{40}$Zr collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{\rm NN}}}=200$ GeV by STAR detector. The significant deviations from unity ratios elliptic flow $v_{2}$, triangular $v_{3}$, mean $p_{\rm T}$ fluctuations $\langle\delta p_{\rm T}^{2}\rangle/\langle...

The homogenous water oxidation catalysis by [Ru(terpy)(bipy)Cl](+) (1) and [Ru(terpy)(Me2bipy)Cl](+) (2) (terpy = 2,2':6',2''-terpyridine, bipy = 2,2'-bipyridine, Me2bipy = 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine) under the influence of two redox mediators [Ru(bipy)3](2+) (3) and [Ru(phen)2(Me2bipy)](2+) (4) (phen = 1,10-phenanthroline) was investigated using Ce(4+) as sacrificial oxidant. Oxygen evoluti...

The generalized Bohr Hamiltonian was used to describe the low-lying collective excitations in even-even isotopes of Ru, Pd, Te, Ba and Nd. The Strutinsky collective potential and cranking inertial functions were obtained using the Nilsson potential. The effect of coupling with the pairing vibrations is taken into account approximately when determining the inertial functions. The calculation doe...

Dinuclear Ru(III) complexes, [Ru(III)(acac)(2)(dabe)Ru(III)(acac)(2)] (acacH = acetylacetone; dabeH(2) = 1, 2-diacetyl-1,2-dibenzoylethane) and [Ru(III)(acac)(2)(tbet)Ru(III)(acac)(2)] (tbetH(2) = 1,1,2,2-tetrabenzoylethane) were synthesized by reacting [Ru(acac)(2)(CH(3)CN)(2)]PF(6) with dabeH(2) and tbetH(2) respectively, in toluene. The X-ray structural analysis of a meso-type dinuclear Ru(I...

For application to ammonia dehydrogenation, novel Ru-based heterogeneous catalysts, Ru-N-C and Ru-C, were synthesized via simple pyrolysis of a mixture of RuCl3·6H2O and carbon black with or without dicyandiamide as a nitrogen-containing precursor at 550 °C. Characterization of the prepared Ru-N-C and Ru-C catalysts via scanning transmission electron microscopy, in conjunction with energy dispe...

Technetium metal and Tc-Ru alloys were characterised to build a database of the Tc metal target for transmutation. The lattice parameters of Tc-Ru alloys including Tc and Ru metals measured by X-ray diffraction decrease with increasing Ru concentration. The thermal conductivity of Tc-Ru alloys including Tc and Ru metals was determined by the thermal diffusivity measured by the laser flash metho...
