THE COMPOSITION OF SOME NITRATO NITROSYLRUTHENIUM COMPLEXES

Journal Article · · J. Inorg. & Nuclear Chem.
Isolation and analysis of some of the nitrato complexes of nitrosylruthenium existing in nitric acid solutions has permitted identification of the complexes. The complex that is most extractable in tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP) was shown to be trinitrato nitrosylruthenium STARuNO(NO/sub 3/)/sub 3/ (H/ sub 2/O)/sub w2/!; other extractable species contained fewer than three nitrato groups. Three cationic species, which were isolated by ion exchange techniques, were shown to be dinitrato, mononitrato, and nonnitrato nitrosylruthenium with the probable formuias STARuNO(NO/sub 3/)/sub3/H/sub 2/O) /sub 3/!/sup +/, STARuNO(NO/sub 3/) (H/sub 2/O)/sub 4!/sup 2+, and STARuNO(H/sub 2/O)/sub 5/!/sup 3+/ respectively. A study of the complexes adsorbed by anion exchange resins indicated the absorbed species to be a mixture of complexes some of which contained more than three nitrato groups per ruthenium atom.
