Procedure

To a 100 cc glass flask is added 50 mls. of methanol, 5.0 grams of triphenylphosphine and 1.0 gram of ruthenium trichloride hydrate. The resulting mixture is stirred and heated by means of an oil bath under an atmosphere of nitrogen to a temperature of 75° C. and maintained at that temperature for 6 hours. Tris(triphenylphosphine) ruthenium dichloride is formed as a brown insoluble powder, which is recovered by filtration (3.9 gram).
