Ruthenium isocyanides clusters

Ruthenium-(O) and -(i).—Apart from the ruthenium clusters discussed separately, only a few new ruthenium(O) complexes have been reported. The isocyanide complexes [Ru(CO)2(CNRKPPh3)2] and [Ru(CO)(CNR)(PPh3)3] have been prepared as shown in Scheme 1. Use of oxygen in the final step gave... 

TRI- AND TETRANUCLEAR CARBONYL-RUTHENIUM CLUSTER COMPLEXES CONTAINING ISOCYANIDE, TERTIARY PHOSPHINE, AND PHOSPHITE LIGANDS. RADICAL ION-INITIATED SUBSTITUTION OF METAL CLUSTER CARBONYL COMPLEXES UNDER MILD CONDITIONS... 

In the cluster compound [Ru5(CO)i4 (/i5-f/ -CNBu )(CNBuO] one of the tert-h xXy isocyanide molecules constitutes a bridge bonded to five ruthenium atoms " (cf. Section 12.1).
