Uses

• 1. Catalysis:
  Employed as a hydrogen-transfer catalyst in various organic synthesis processes.
  Facilitates carbonylation reactions, such as the formation of allylic amines from unactivated olefins and nitroarenes.
  Catalyzes reductive carbonylation of nitroaromatics to produce carbamates.
  Used in cycloaddition reactions, such as converting α,β-unsaturated ketones into α-pyrones.
• 1. Nanoparticle Synthesis:
  Serves as a precursor for creating ruthenium nanoparticles, which are used in high-surface-area catalysis applications.
• 1. Cluster Formation:
  Under certain conditions, it can transform into larger ruthenium-carbonyl clusters or interstitial carbido clusters, which have specialized applications in advanced material science and catalysis.
• 1. Research Applications:
  Commonly used in inorganic and organometallic chemistry research for studying metal-carbonyl complexes and reaction mechanisms.
• 1. Chemical Derivatives:
  Can be modified by substitution with ligands like phosphines or isonitriles, leading to derivatives with tailored properties.
