Ruthenium(III) acetate, commonly known as basic ruthenium acetate, [1] describes a family of salts where the cation has the formula [Ru 3 O(O 2 CCH 3) 6 (OH 2) 3] +.A representative derivative is the dihydrate of the tetrafluoroborate salt [Ru 3 O(O 2 CCH 3) 6 (OH 2) 3]BF 4 (H 2 O) 2, which is the source of the data in the table above.

Ruthenium(III) acetylacetonate is a coordination complex with the formula Ru(O 2 C 5 H 7) 3. O 2 C 5 H 7 − is the ligand called acetylacetonate . This compound exists as a dark red solid that is soluble in most organic solvents. [ 3 ]
Ruthenium trichloride. The highest known ruthenium halide is the hexafluoride, a dark brown solid that melts at 54 °C.It hydrolyzes violently upon contact with water and easily disproportionates to form a mixture of lower ruthenium fluorides, releasing fluorine gas.
Ruthenium is a chemical element; it has symbol Ru and atomic number 44. It is a rare transition metal belonging to the platinum group of the periodic table. Like the other metals of the platinum group, ruthenium is unreactive to most chemicals.
The complex TiCl 2 (acac) 2 is fluxional in solution, the NMR spectrum exhibiting a single methyl resonance at room temperature. [ 6 ] Unlike Ti(IV), both Zr(IV) and Hf(IV) bind four bidentate acetylacetonates, reflecting the larger radius of these metals.
Diruthenium tetraacetate chloride is the coordination polymer with the formula {[Ru 2 (O 2 CCH 3) 4]Cl} n. A red brown solid, the compound is obtained by the reduction of ruthenium trichloride in acetic acid. [1] The compound has attracted much academic interest because it features a fractional metal-metal bond order of 2.5. [2]
Ruthenium anti-cancer drugs are coordination complexes of ruthenium complexes that have anticancer properties. They promise to provide alternatives to platinum -based drugs for anticancer therapy. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Triruthenium carbonyl complexes containing maltol, ethylmaltol, N-phenyl and N-benzyl 4-pyridones show excellent anticancer activity.
One of the ruthenium atoms is in a +3 oxidation state, and the other in a +4 oxidation state. In addition to the four ammonia ligands, each ruthenium also has one formate group and there are a total of three chloride ions to balance the charge. In solution, chloride or hydroxide groups displace the formates. [1]
