Ruthenium-based heterocyclic carbene-coordinated olefin metathesis catalysts.
TL;DR: The fascinating story of olefin (or alkene) metathesis began almost five decades ago, when Anderson and Merckling reported the first carbon-carbon double-bond rearrangement reaction in the titanium-catalyzed polymerization of norbornene.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contributions to the development of ruthenium-based sensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells
Georgios C. Vougioukalakis,Athanassios I. Philippopoulos,Thomas Stergiopoulos,Polycarpos Falaras +3 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review article traces the discovery that were instrumental to the evolution of DSSCs, taking a critical look at the principles of the operation mechanism and insisting on the most important recent developments in the field.
Journal ArticleDOI
Open-cage fullerenes: towards the construction of nanosized molecular containers
TL;DR: In this critical review, all published techniques for the creation of an orifice, as well as for the expansion of an existing one, on the fullerene framework are surveyed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Removing Ruthenium Residues from Olefin Metathesis Reaction Products
TL;DR: This Minireview summarizes the strategies for the sequestration of ruthenium impurities from olefin metathesis post-reaction mixtures, thus comprising a practical guide for synthetic chemists employing rutenium-catalyzed metatheses reactions in the synthesis of organic or polymeric materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and activity of ruthenium olefin metathesis catalysts coordinated with thiazol-2-ylidene ligands.
TL;DR: A new family of ruthenium-based olefin metathesis catalysts bearing a series of thiazole-2-ylidene ligands has been prepared, and theosphine-free catalysts of this family are more stable than their phosphine-containing counterparts, exhibiting pseudo-first-order kinetics in the ring-closing of diethyldiallyl malonate.
