Electrochemical characterization of [RuII(bpy)(CO)2Cl2] (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine). Isolation of a new complex: [RuII(bpy)(CO)Cl2][Me4N].

A reaction of 2,2'-bipyridine (bpy) with the Ru red carbonyl soln. produces a mixt. of Ru(III)(bpy)(CO)3Cl3 and Ru(II)(bpy)(CO)2Cl2. A reflux of this mixt. in water + ethanol soln. gives the isolation of Ru(II)(bpy)(CO)2Cl2. Some primary studies were made of the electrocatalytic activity of [Ru(II)(bpy)(CO)Cl3][Me4N] for the redn. of CO. The role of the film resulting from the redn. of Ru(II)(bpy)(CO)Cl2 in the electrocatalytic process is discussed. [on SciFinder(R)]
