Cyclohexene Hydrocarbomethoxylation Catalysed By Ruthenium Compounds
This paper presents a catalytic activity of ruthenium (III) compounds in the model reaction of cyclohexene hydrocarbomethoxylation. The objective of the work was contained in the determination of the most active ruthenium catalyst of this reaction. The kinetic method was used as the main method of investigation. The gas–liquid chromatography method was

Some iodo-compounds of ruthenium.
The work described in this thesis is concerned with an investigation into the preparation and properties of ruthenium nitrosyl di-iodide and ruthenium tri-iodide. The preparation of ruthenium nitrosyl di-iodide Ru(NO)I[2], by treating ruthenium dicarbonyl di-iodide Ru(CO)[2]I[2], with nitric oxide is described, and its structure is discussed.
