The reaction of [Ru(L)2(H2biim)](ClO4)2 [L1 = 2,2¢-bipyridine (bpy) or L2 =  2-(phenylazo)pyridine (pap) and H2biim = 2,2¢-biimidazole] with Au(tht)Cl (tht = tetrahydrothiophene) in presence of base in methanol produced a terametallic cationic complex [{Ru(L)2(biim)}<s...

• Post-synthetic modification of two-dimensional metal-organic framework. CuBDC-NH 2 nanosheet reacts with isocyanate-terminated polyurethane oligomer(PU). The /PU is conducted to prepare functional nanocomposite membrane. membrane shows over 93.0% removal rate for dye removal. Two-dimensional framework (2D MOF) becoming as an attractive type 2D materials. And (PSM) provides a powerful method m...

Ruthenium (Ru) complexes have been studied as promising anticancer agents. Ru nitrosyl complex (Ru-NO) is one which acts as a pro-drug for the release of nitric oxide (NO). The Ru-aqueous complex formed by the exchange of NO for a water molecule after NO release could also possess therapeutic effects. This study evaluates the influence of iontophoresis on enhancing the skin penetration of Ru-NO...

Two isomers, [Ru(1)]2+ (Ru = Ru(bpy)2, bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine, 1 = 2-(pyrid-2'-yl)-1-azaacridine) and [Ru(2)]2+ (2 = 3-(pyrid-2'-yl)-4-azaacridine), are bioinspired model compounds containing the nicotinamide functionality and can serve as precursors for the photogeneration of C-H hydrides for studying reactions pertinent to the photochemical reduction of metal-C1 complexes and/or carbon dioxide...

The present work describes the robust synthesis of Ru alkylidene complexes (PCy(3))(2)Cl(2)Ru=CHR - precursors for metathesis catalysts. Moreover, the dynamic behavior of complexes where R = 2-naphthyl and 2-thienyl was studied. (1)H NMR techniques were employed to establish the preferred conformations in solution for both complexes and the energy barrier for rotation around single (Ru=)CH-C(th...

The title triangulo-triruthenium(0) compound, [Ru(3)(C(30)H(32)P(2))(CO)(10)], contains a triangle of singly bonded Ru atoms. The phosphane-bridged Ru-Ru distance [2.9531 (2) Å] is significantly longer than the non-bridged Ru-Ru distances [2.8842 (2) and 2.8876 (2) Å] . The bis-(diphenyl-phosphan-yl)hexane ligand bridges the Ru-Ru bond. Each phosphane-substituted Ru atom bears one equatorial an...

In this work, the polyacrylonitrile monolayer/composite nanofibrous membranes were successfully fabricated at different processing parameters. As expected, compared with monolayer membranes, composite membrane revealed high breaking strength, elongation, porosity, and good filtration performance. The method used in article also provides new ideas for designing filter materials.

The first example for an endohedral transition-metal atom (Ru) sequestered in a seven-coordinate surrounding of rare-earth metal atoms (Pr) has been found for {RuPr3}Cl3. The monocapped trigonal prisms of Pr atoms share two rectangular faces, forming a zigzag chain with Ru-Ru distances of 308 pm. Intracluster bonding is dominated by Ru-Pr bonding with very little Ru-Ru bonding.
