Abstrakt: The influence of fullerenes and related support materials on the catalytic properties of ruthenium was investigated. The catalytic behaviour of catalysts based on C60, raw fullerene black, extracted fullerene black, cathode deposit, and graphite was examined using low-temperature CO hydrogenation and liquid-phase hydrogenation of 2-cyclohexenone at atmospheric pressure. The relevance of non-six-membered carbon rings (NSMCR) in support materials on the stability and catalytic performance of the Ru particles will be illustrated. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
