Ligand-stabilized ruthenium nanoparticles: synthesis, organization, and dynamics.

The decomposition of the ruthenium precursor Ru(COD)(COT) (1, COD = 1,5-cyclooctadiene; COT = 1,3,5-cyclooctatriene) in mild conditions (room temperature, 1--3 bar H(2)) in THF leads, in the presence of a stabilizer (polymer or ligand), ...

The fractionation of platinum-group elements in magmatic systems, with the suggestion of a novel causal mechanism

Compatible behaviour has been considered as a major influence on the behaviour of the platinum-group elements (PGE) in magmatic systems. The authors believe that current models tend to over-emphasize the crystal-chemical compatibiliti...
