Electrodeposition of Ruthenium

Abstract
A new electrolyte has been developed for the electrodeposition of ruthenium. Deposits are bright at cathode current efficiencies up to 100%, the bath is stable in operation and has a useful working life, expressed as total deposit weight, of over 50 g ruthenium per litre of electrolyte. The process is based on a novel,† readily prepared anionic complex of ruthenium having the formula (NH4)2 [Ru2NCl8(H2O)2].
