In the presence of DBU (1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene), a novel water-soluble hydroxide ruthenium complex [(bipy)2Ru(H2O)(OH)](OTf) was synthesized by deprotonation of [(bipy)2Ru(H2O)2]- (OTf)2 (bipy＝2,2-bipyridine, Otf－＝triflate), which was prepared using RuCl3•3H2O as starting material. The hydration of acetonitrile to form acetamide catalyzed by [(bipy)2Ru(H2O)(OH)](OTf) was studied. O-bonded imido complex [(bipy)2Ru(N≡CCH3)(OCMe＝NH)]＋ is postulated to be the key intermediate, which then undergoes nucleophilic attack at the carbon atom of nitrile ligand to form [(bipy)2Ru(k2-N,O- NH＝CMeN＝CMeO)]＋. Ring-opening nucleophilic attack of [(bipy)2Ru(k2-N,O-NH＝CMeN＝CMeO)]＋by water produces {(bipy)2Ru[NH＝C(OH)Me](OCMe＝NH)}＋. The displacement of NH＝C(OH)Me ligand in the latter complex by acetonitrile forms acetamide, and regenerates [(bipy)2Ru(N≡CCH3)- (OCMe＝NH)]＋ to fulfill catalytic cycle.

Key words: water-soluble ruthenium hydroxide complex, acetonitrile, catalytic hydration, mechanism
