Preparation, X-ray crystal structure analysis, and reactions of a novel, hydroxo-bridged, tetranuclear, π-arene ruthenium(II) quadrivalent cation [{(η6-C6H6)Ru(OH)}4](SO4)2·12H2O

Abstract
Reaction of [{(η6-C6H6)RuCl2}2] with aqueous sodium carbonate (1 : 2 molar ratio) and excess of sodium sulphate gives the title compound (II) whose structure has been determined by X-ray diffraction; a mechanism of formation and some reactions of (II) are also outlined.
