Abstract A new series of dinuclear ruthenium(II,II) dicarboxylates, but not dinuclear ruthenium(II,III) dicarboxylates, have been prepared. Dinuclear ruthenium(II,II) dicarboxylates, which have a regular two- or three-dimensional network structure, occlude large amounts of gas. The maximum amount of N2 gas that can be occluded by these complexes is 1.0–1.7 moles per mole of ruthenium atoms, indicating the presence of a large number of micropores. These complexes exhibited pore volume-dependent catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of ethylene.
