Description

Triruthenium dodecacarbonyl is a group p2 metal carbonyl. It has a thermal expansion of 5.5 x 10-6 K-1 and an enthalpy of formation of -12.7 kJ mol-1. This compound undergoes reactions with amines, resulting in the formation of diazonium salts. FTIR spectroscopy has been used to identify the presence of nitrogen atoms in this molecule, which are responsible for its strong absorption bands in the region between 3200 and 3400 cm-1. The carbonyl group found in triruthenium dodecacarbonyl reacts with fatty acids to produce tiglic acid, a chemical substance that can be used as a raw material for the production of synthetic ruthenium. Picolinic acid, a natural product found in plants, also reacts with triruthenium dodecacarbonyl and copper complex to form an ion pair known
