TLDR
The ruthenium(II)-catalyzed tandem cycloaddition of 1,6-heptadiynes with bicyclic alkenes, such as bicyclo[3.2.1] oct-6-en-3-one was unequivocally determined by X-ray analysis and was concluded to involve an unusual 1,2-dicyclopropylcyclopentene skeleton as discussed by the authors.Abstract:
The ruthenium(II)-catalyzed tandem cycloaddition of 1,6-heptadiynes with bicyclic alkenes, such as bicyclo[3.2.1]heptenones and norbornene derivatives, furnishes the 1:2 adducts between the diynes and two molecules of the bicycloalkenes together with common [2 + 2 + 2] cyclocotrimerization products. The structure of a representative tandem 1:2 adduct between dimethyl dipropargylmalonate and 2,4-dimethylbicyclo[3.2.1]oct-6-en-3-one was unequivocally determined by X-ray analysis and was concluded to involve an unusual 1,2-dicyclopropylcyclopentene skeleton. On the basis of the spectroscopic analogy, the previously communicated structures of the tandem cycloadducts between the diynes and norbornene derivatives were corrected. The formation of the tandem double-cyclopropanation products from the diynes is chemical evidence of a bis-carbenoid hybrid structure, 1,3,5-metallacyclopentatriene, of the corresponding 2,4-metallacyclopentadiene intermediates. The selectivity for the formation of the tandem cyclopropa...read more

TL;DR: The ruthenium-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (RuAAC) appears to proceed via oxidative coupling of the azide and alkyne reactants to give a six-membered rUThenacycle intermediate, in which the first new carbon-nitrogen bond is formed between the more electronegative carbon of the alkynes and the terminal, electrophilic nitrogen of the Azide.

Ruthenium(II)-catalyzed selective intramolecular [2 + 2 + 2] alkyne cyclotrimerizations.
TL;DR: In the presence of a catalytic amount of Cp*RuCl(cod), 1,6-diynes chemoselectively reacted with monoalkynes at ambient temperature to afford the desired bicyclic benzene derivatives in good yields to produce meta-substituted products with excellent regioselectivity in ruthenium catalysis.

TL;DR: The phytochemical remains of the seven-membered ring formation are still under investigation, but it is clear that the polymethine content of the ring is lower than previously thought, suggesting that it is more likely to be a mixture of 22π and 32σ.
