The phonon spectrum, crystal structure, and stability of the ruthenocene molecule at ambient and high pressures were studied. The crystal had an orthorhombic structure Pnma, Z=4. A change in the parameters at high pressure could be described by the Murnaghan equation of state (V0/V)B=1+P· B'/B0 with B0=9.68 GPa and B'=6.1 up to a pressure of 4 GPa, above which a drastic increase in the mosaic parameters was observed in the X-ray diffraction patterns. The pressure dependence of phonon frequencies under hydrostatic compression changed abruptly at ~4,~8 and ~5 GPa in the first, second, and third series of measurements, respectively. The results of all measurements for a decrease in the pressure differed from those for an increase in the pressure, the changes being irreversible. Under non-hydrostatic compression, the changes occurred gradually in the range of ~4 to ~10 GPa. The ruthenocene molecule was stable in the eclipsed conformation; however, jumps to the staggered conformation were possible under heating. The energy barrier between the conformations determined from the Arrhenius dependence of the bandwidth of intermolecular phonons on temperature was (273±19) meV/mol. Keywords: metallocenes, high pressure, Raman scattering, X-ray diffraction, phase transitions, molecular conformation stability.
