Abstract
Reaction between a reduced solution of cis-[Ru(trien)Br2]Br•2H2O and gaseous nitrogen yields the dimeric species [(trien)RuXN2XRu(trien)]X2 where X = added anion I, Br and trien = triethylene tetraamine. In solution, the halides undergo solvolysis, before bridge splitting occurs, giving the monomeric [Ru(trien)N2H2O]2+ ion. The rate of formation of monomer is pH dependent, being faster in base.Keywords
