Ruthenium catalyst

rutheniumThe catalyst is hydrogenated in aliphatic carbonyl compounds and aromatic hydrocarbon rings under milder conditions, exhibiting high activity without side reactions. When water is present in the reaction system, the ruthenium catalyst exhibits high activity and can resist sulfides (which is a factor that generally poisons noble metal catalysts). The ruthenium catalyst is stable in acidic or basic solutions and can be used in strong acid reactions.
