As a common heterocyclic compound, it belongs to ruthenium-catalysts compound, name is Dichloro(cycloocta-1,5-diene)ruthenium(II), and cas is 50982-12-2, its synthesis route is as follows.,50982-12-2
Na2[7,10-nido-C2B10H12] was dissolved in degassed THF (45 mL) giving a purple solution. Excess Na was removed from the reduced carborane solution to give a colourless solution which was then transferred into a Schlenk tube containing [RuCl2(COD)]x (0.780 g, 2.78 mmol) and a large excess of naphthalene. The resulting brown mixture was heated at reflux for 90 min then allowed to cool to room temperature. The brown mixture was filtered through a short silica column eluting with DCM to afford a brown solution, removal of solvent from which yielded a brown solid. This was further purified by column chromatography (1:2 DCM:40-60 petroleum ether), giving a yellow band, followed by preparative TLC (2:1 DCM:40-60 petroleum ether, Rf 0.38) yielding solid. C12H20B10Ru requires C 38.59, H 5.40. Found: C 39.48, H 4.87%.
With the complex challenges of chemical substances, we look forward to future research findings about Dichloro(cycloocta-1,5-diene)ruthenium(II)
