Ruthenium–Aryloxide Catalysts for Olefin Metathesis

  • Conference paper
Metathesis Chemistry

Part of the book series: NATO Science Series ((NAII,volume 243))

Advances in design of ruthenium aryloxide catalysts for olefin metathesis are described. The target complexes are accessible on reaction of RuCl2(NHC)(py)2 (CHPh) (NHC – N-heterocyclic carbene) with electron-deficient, monodentate aryl- oxides, or aryloxides that yield small, rigid chelate rings. The best of these catalysts offer activity comparable to or greater than that of the parent chloride (Grubbs) systems in ring-closing metathesis (RCM). Preliminary studies of the electronic nature of the Ru–X bond suggest that the metal center is more electropositive in the aryloxide complexes than in the Grubbs systems.
