A modulation of the regioselectivity in the ring-opening metathesis-cross metathesis (ROCM) process, originated by the electronic features of the acyclic olefin, is described. Electron-poor and electr...
[structure: see text]. In this paper we describe a highly regioselective ring-opening metathesis-cross metathesis (ROM-CM) process between methyl N-Boc-7-azabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-en-1-carboxylate, a br...
Terminal nitrido complexes NMo(OC(CF3)2Me)3 (4), NMo(OC(CF3)2Me)3(NCMe) (4-NCMe), and NMo(OC(CF3)3)3(NCMe) (5-NCMe) react irreversibly with 3-hexyne at elevated temperature in hydrocarbon solution to ...
A tandem cross metathesis (CM)--ring-closing metathesis (RCM) sequence to form cyclic siloxanes is reported. This new enyne metathesis platform expands the scope and utility of the regio- and stereose...
[reaction: see text] The first total synthesis of the novel sesquiterpene lactone (+)-8-epi-xanthatin (1) has been achieved starting from the commercially available ester 8. The synthesis features an ...
The title concept involves the use of structurally modified RCM substrates that contain extender arms, terminating in a remote reactive alkene. Initiation of an RCM sequence at that reactive alkene is...
Alkane metathesis can be performed by using well-defined silica-supported alkene metathesis catalyst precursors as long as the coordination sphere of the metal centre contains both alkyl and alkyliden...
