Abstract
The structure of the anchored carbonylic complexes (Ru A, Ru B, and Ru C) formed by interaction of Ru 3(CO) 12 with Al 2O 3 is further investigated by 13CO 12CO isotopic substitution. All complexes contain two coupled CO oscillators per ruthenium centre and the local structure is tetrahedral (Ru A) or octahedral (Ru B and Ru C). The reactivity of these species towards simple molecules is also tested and the interconversion of the Ru B and Ru C species in reducing and oxidizing atmospheres is established. The oxidation states III, II, and 0 are proposed for Ru in the Ru A, Ru B, and Ru C species, respectively.
