Abstract

Detailed kinetic studies of the hydrolysis of the trans-[RuCl3(dbtp)2(H2O)] complex (where dbtp – 5,7-ditertbuthyl-1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine), using conventional techniques were performed as a function of hydroxide ion concentration in perchlorate alkaline media (pH 12–13), acetate-buffered and phosphate-buffered solutions (pH 3–7), and non-aqueous media. The hydrolysis and degradation products produced in non-aqueous solutions were detected and identified using UV–Vis spectroscopy, ESI-MS, IR, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The first and second steps of the hydrolysis in aqueous media were established as having interchange (I) and interchange dissociative (Id) mechanisms.
