Highly conductive oxide films of BaRuO$_3$ have been grown heteroepitaxially on (100) LaAlO$_3$ single crystalline substrates by using pulsed laser deposition. The films are c-axis oriented with an in-plane epitaxial relationship of <010><100>BaRuO$_3$ // <110>LaAlO$_3$. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) observation shows that they consist of a fine-arranged network of grains and have a mosaic microstructure. Generally temperature-dependent resistivity shows the transition from metallic curve to semiconductor-metallic twofold curve by the deposition conditions for Ru oxide based materials like SrRuO$_3$, CaRuO$_3$, BaRuO$_3$, etc.. This twofold curve comes from the structural similarity of Ru oxide based materials including BaRuO$_3$. We find that the distance of Ru-Ru bonding in the unit cell of BaRuO$_3$ as well as the grain boundary scattering could be the two important causes of these interesting conductive properties.

Ruthenium (Ru) thin films were grown on thermally-grown $SiO_2$ substrates by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using a sequential supply of four kinds of novel zero-valent Ru precursors, isopropyl-methylbenzene-cyclohexadiene Ru(0) (IMBCHDRu, $C_{16}H_{22}Ru$), ethylbenzen-cyclohexadiene Ru(0) (EBCHDRu, $C_{14}H_{18}Ru$), ethylbenzen-ethyl-cyclohexadiene Ru(0) (EBECHDRu, $C_{16}H_{22}Ru$), and (ethylbenzene)(1,3-butadiene)Ru(0) (EBBDRu, $C_{12}H_{16}Ru$) and molecular oxygen (O2) as a reactant at substrate temperatures ranging from 140 to $350^{\circ}C$. It was shown that little incubation cycles were observed for ALD-Ru processes using these new novel zero-valent Ru precursors, indicating of the improved nucleation as compared to the use of typical higher-valent Ru precursors such as cyclopentadienyl-based Ru (II) or ${\beta}$-diketonate Ru (III) metallorganic precursors. It was also shown that Ru nuclei were formed after very short cycles (only 3 ALD cycles) and the maximum nuclei densities were almost 2 order of magnitude higher than that obtained using higher-valent Ru precursors. The step coverage of ALD-Ru was excellent, around 100% at on a hole-type contact with an ultra-high aspect ratio (~32) and ultra-small trench with an aspect ratio of ~ 4.5 (top-opening diameter: ~ 25 nm). The developed ALD-Ru film was successfully used as a seed layer for Cu electroplating.

The Pt-Ru electrocatalyst was Prepared on Nafion membrane modified with Polypyrrole by chemical reduction of $H_2PtCI_6\;and\;RuCl_3$ solution ai precursor. From the electron dispersive microanalysis spectroscope(EDS), the Pt-Ru catalyst was located on the surface of Ppy/Nafion composite. The electrochemical oxidation of methanol on Pt-Ru catalyst deposited in Polypyrrole-impregnated Nafion was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry. The onset potential of methanol oxidation was shifted to negative potential as the $RuCI_3$ concentration in deposition solution. Also, it was known that the Pt-Ru binary catalyst on Nafion could be directly deposited by using Polypyrrole and resulting Pt-Ru/PPy/Nafion was available for methanol oxidation.

The synthesis and characterization of ${K_3[Ru(C_2O_4)3]{\cdot}4H_2O\;(C_2O_4}^{2-}$ = oxalato anoin) complex are described, and its redox properties (in buffer solution of pH = 12) have been investigated. This complex is used for in situ generation of oxoruthenates complexes which have been characterized by electronic spectroscopy. Reaction of ${K_3[Ru(C_2O_4)3]{\cdot}4H_2O$ with excess ${S_2O_8}^{2-}$ in molar KOH generates trans-${[RuO_3(OH)_2]^{2-}/S_2O_8}^{2-}$ reagent while with excess ${BrO_3}^-$ in molar $Na_2CO_3$ generates ${[RuO_4]^-/BrO_3}^-$ reagent. Avoiding the direct use of [$RuO_4$] the organic-soluble $(n-Pr_4N)^+[RuO_4]^-$, (TPAP) has been isolated by reaction of $K_3[Ru(C_2O_4)3]{\cdot}4H_2O$ with excess ${BrO_3}^-$ in molar carbonate and n-$Pr_4$NOH. In a mixture of $H_2O/CCl_4$ ruthenium tetraoxide can be generated by reaction of $K_3[Ru(C_2O_4)3]{\cdot}4H_2O$ with excess ${IO_4}^-$. The catalytic activities of oxoruthenates that have been made from $K_3[Ru(C_2O_4)3]{\cdot}4H_2O$ towards the oxidation of benzyl alcohol, piperonyl alcohol, benzaldehyde and benzyl amine at room temperature have been studied.

In this study, the effect of calcination temperature on the production of RuTi catalyst in NH₃-SCO (selective catalytic oxidation) was investigated. The RuTi catalyst was prepared using the wet impregnation method, and calcined at 400~600 ℃ for 4 h in air condition. The catalysts were named RuTi x00 where x00 means the calcination temperature. According to XRD (X-Ray diffraction), TEM (transmission electron microscope), H₂-TPR (H₂-temperature programmed reduction) analyses, RuTi x00 catalysts displayed that the dispersion of active metal decreased via increasing the calcination temperature. The catalysts with low dispersion showed a decrease in the surface adsorption oxygen species (O_β) and NH₃ adsorption amount via XPS, and NH₃-TPD analyses. Therefore, the RuTi 400 catalyst was well dispersed in the active metal on TiO₂ surface, and also, the NH₃ removal efficiency was excellent.

The syntheses and reactivities with olefins of $[Ru^{II}(L_3)(L_2)OH_2]^{2+}$ $[L_3$= 2,6-bis(N-pyrazolyl)pyridine(bpp), 2,6-bis(3,5-dimethyl-N-pyrazolyl)pyridine $(Me_4bpp);\;L_2$= 2,2'-bipyridine(bpy), 4,4'-dimethyl-2,2'-bipyridine $(Me_2bpy)$] are described. Their spectral and redox properties in aqueous solution were investigated. Evidence for each one electron redox process for the $Ru^{IV}-Ru^{III}$ and $Ru^{III}-Ru^{II}$ couples has been obtained. Oxidation of $[Ru^{II}(bpp)(bpy)OH_2]^{2+}$ with $Ce^{IV}$ gave $[Ru^{IV}(bpp)(bpy)O]^{2+}$. The $[Ru^{IV}$= 0 complex is paramagnetic $({\mu}_{eff}=2.82)$ and the complexes $[Ru(L_3)(L_2)OH_2]^{2+}$ are robust catalysts for the oxidation of styrene, cyclohexene, and cyclooctene with cooxidant such as NaOCl. Product distributions and selectivities are discussed by varying the number of the substituted-methyl group in the ring.

The reactions of Ru(tpy)Cl3 (tpy = 2,2';6',2"-terpyridine) with new N,N,C-terdentate ligands, 3,2'-annulated-6-(2"-pyridyl)-2-phenylpyridines (1, HL) and the properties of their Ru(II) complexes are described. The distribution ratio of the two possible Ru(II) complexes, a pentaaza-coordinated complex [Ru(tpy)(1-N,N')Cl]+ and a cycloruthenated complex [Ru(tpy)(La-N,N',C)]+ are highly dependent on the length of the polymethylene unit. The trimethylene bridge of the N,N,C-terdentate in pentaaza-coordinated complex is rigid enough to induce an asymmetry in the complex.

$Sr_2Ru_{1-x}Cu_xO_{4-y}(0.0{\le}x{\le}0.5)$ compounds were prepared using a conventional solid state reaction. Based on the Rietveld refinements of X-ray diffraction results, it is revealed that $Sr_2Ru_{1-x}Cu_xO_{4-y}$ compounds are the single phases with K2NiF4 type tetragonal system in the range of 0=x=0.3, while the mixed phases of$Sr_2RuO_4$ and $Sr_2CuO_3$ in the range of $0.4{\le}x{\le}0.5$. By means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, the valence states of Ru and Cu in $Sr_2Ru_{1-x}Cu_xO_{4-y}$, have been confirmed to 4+ and 2+, respectively. The bond length difference between $Ru-O_1 ({\times}4)\;and\;Ru-O_2 ({\times}2)\;in\;RuO_6$ octahedron is gradually decreased with increasing Cu content in $Sr_2Ru_{1-x}Cu_xO_{4-y}$, which results in the lower c/a ratio. So, it might be assured that the variation of local symmetry of $RuO_6$ octahedron is very closely related to the transporting property of $Sr_2Ru_{1-x}Cu_xO_{4-y}$ compounds. The behavior of resistivity discloses that the metallic property in $Sr_2RuO_4$ changes into the semiconducting one in proportion to the Cu content in $Sr_2Ru_{1-x}Cu_xO_{4-y}$.

Novel carbonylruthenium (Ⅲ) complex Cp*Ru(CO)Cl2(2, Cp*=η5-C5Me5) was synthesized by the reaction of [Cp*RuCl2]2(1) with CO in toluene. The effective magnetic moment (Veff=1.81 B.M.) derived from the magnetic susceptibility measurement of the complex (2) was consistent with the presence of one "single" unpaired electron. Dibromocarbonylruthenium (Ⅲ) complex Cp*Ru(CO)Br2(3) was obtained by the reaction of complex (2) with KBr in toluene. Complex (2) was easily reduced by the reaction with phosphine in toluene to give the corresponding Ru (Ⅱ) complex Cp*Ru(CO)(PR3)Cl (4a∼4e, PR3=PMe3, PEt3, PMePh2, PPh3, PCy3).
