Abstract
The synthesis of ruthenium-complexes with cyclic (amino)(barrelene)carbenes (namely CABCs) as ligands is reported. Isolated in moderate to good yields, these new complexes showed impressive thermal stability at 110 °C over several days. Good catalytic performances were demonstrated in various ring-closing metathesis (RCM), macrocyclic–RCM, ring-closing enyne metathesis (RCEYM), cross-metathesis (CM), and ring-opening cross metathesis (ROCM) reactions.
