Osmium Pentacarbonyl
Osmium pentacarbonyl is the organoosmium compound with the formula Os(CO)5. It is the simplest isolatable carbonyl complex of osmium. Osmium pentacarbonyl is a colorless volatile liquid that is obtained by treating solid triosmium dodecacarbonyl under 200 atmospheres of carbon monoxide at 280-290 °C. In contrast, also at 200 atm of CO, solid Ru3(CO)12 converts to Ru(CO)5 at milder temperature of 160 °C. Reactions Samples of Os(CO)5 convert back to the trioosmium cluster upon heating to 80 °C. The analogous conversion of Ru(CO)5 back to Ru3(CO)12 occurs at room temperature. Chlorination Chlorination may refer to: * Chlorination reaction In chemistry, halogenation is a chemical reaction that entails the introduction of one or more halogens into a compound. Halide-containing compounds are pervasive, making this type of transform ... of the pentacarbonyl gives a cationic pentacarbonyl complex: :Os(CO)5 + Cl2 → s(CO)5Clsup>+Cl− Upon UV irradiati ...

Organoosmium Compound
Organoruthenium chemistry is the chemistry of organometallic compounds containing a carbon to ruthenium chemical bond. Several organoruthenium catalysts are of commercial interest and organoruthenium compounds have been considered for cancer therapy. The chemistry has some stoichiometric similarities with organoiron chemistry, as iron is directly above ruthenium in Group 8 element, group 8 of the periodic table. The most important reagents for the introduction of ruthenium are ruthenium(III) chloride and triruthenium dodecacarbonyl. In its organometallic compounds, ruthenium is known to adopt oxidation states from -2 ([Ru(CO)4]2−) to +6 ([RuN(Me)4]−). Most common are those in the 2+ oxidation state, as illustrated below.
