	abstract = {The unique properties of I- allow it to be involved in several different ways in reactions catalyzed by the late transition metals: in the oxidative addition, the migration, and the coupling/reductive elimination steps, as well as in substrate activation. Most steps are accelerated by I- (for example through an increased nucleophilicity of the metal center), but some are retarded, because a coordination site is blocked. The "soft" iodide ligand binds more strongly to soft metals (low oxidation state, electron rich, and polarizable) such as the later and heavier transition metals, than do the other halides, or N- and O-centered ligands. Hence in a catalytic cycle that includes the metal in a formally low oxidation state there will be less tendency for the metal to precipitate ( and be removed from the cycle) in the presence of I- than most other ligands. Iodide is a good nucleophile and is also easily and reversibly oxidized to I-2. In addition, I- can play key roles in purely organic reactions that occur as part of a catalytic cycle. Thus to understand the function of iodide requires careful analysis, since two or sometimes more effects occur in different steps of one single cycle. Each of these topics is illustrated with examples of the influence of iodide from homogeneous catalytic reactions in the literature: methanol carbonylation to acetic acid and related reactions; CO hydrogenation; imine hydrogenation; and C-C and C-N coupling reactions. General features are summarised in the Conclusions.},

Controlled bulk coulometric reduction of 50\% of the content of a CH2Cl2 solution of 1 also produces 2, formed by the reaction of 1 with "RuCl2(dppb)" produced in situ during the electrolysis. Complexes 1 and 2 were characterized by spectroscopic techniques [including electron spin resonance (ESR)], magnetic moments and cyclic voltammetry, and the structure of 1 was determined by X-ray diffraction. The structure shows that the aquo ligand forms hydrogen bonds with two cis-chlorine ligands of the neighboring molecule of the complex; this interaction gives rise to exchange coupling between two Ru(III) centers that is reflected in the ESR spectrum. A species 3 analogous to 1 has been obtained with the diop ligand [diop = (2R,3R)- or (2S,3S)-O-isopropylidene-2,3-dihydroxy-1,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)butane] , on using RuCl2(diop)(PPh3) or [RuCl(diop)](2)(mu-Cl)(3) as precursors.
