Abstract

Reported is the first example of a ruthenium(III) complex, RuIII(edta) (edta4− = ethylenediaminetetraacetate), that catalyzes the disproportion of H2O2 to O2 and water in resemblance to catalase activity, and shedding light on the possible mechanism of action of the [RuV(edta)(O)]− formed in the reacting system.
