Journal ArticleDOI
A Practical and Highly Active Ruthenium-Based Catalyst that Effects the Cross Metathesis of Acrylonitrile†
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased ring closing metathesis activity of ruthenium-based olefin metathesis catalysts coordinated with imidazolin-2-ylidene ligands
TL;DR: In this article, an air and water tolerant, imidazolinylidene-substituted ruthenium-based complex has been prepared starting from RuCl2(CHPh)(PCy3)2 and shown to exhibit increased ring-closing metathesis activity at elevated temperature compared to that of the parent complex.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of Functionalized Olefins by Cross and Ring-Closing Metatheses
TL;DR: In this paper, a single-step synthesis of α-functionalized olefins by intermolecular cross-metathesis and intramolecular ring-closing metathesis using ruthenium alkylidene 3 was reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and Activity of Ruthenium Alkylidene Complexes Coordinated with Phosphine and N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands
Tina M. Trnka,John P. Morgan,Melanie S. Sanford,Thomas E. Wilhelm,Matthias Scholl,Tae-Lim Choi,Sheng Ding,Michael W. Day,Robert H. Grubbs +8 more
TL;DR: This paper reports the synthesis and characterization of a variety of ruthenium complexes coordinated with phosphine and N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands, and evaluates the olefin metathesis activity of NHC-coordinated complexes in representative RCM and ROMP reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
In Situ Preparation of a Highly Active N-Heterocyclic Carbene-Coordinated Olefin Metathesis Catalyst
John P. Morgan,Robert H. Grubbs +1 more
TL;DR: Highly active N-heterocyclic carbene-coordinated catalysts may be synthesized and used in situ, without requiring prior isolation of the catalyst.
