Summary:The possibility of electrochemically depositing conducting films of hydrated ruthenium oxide from an aqueous solution of the benzeneruthenium(II)-aqua complex has been demonstrated. This material has recently been incorporated in several light-induced water electrolysis schemes and apparently possesses the ability to inhibit CdS photocorrosion by acting as a hole scavenger. The deposited ruthenium oxide films in the present investigation dissolve slowly in aqueous electrolytes upon potential cycling, yet appear to be catalytic with respect to water oxidation.
