Abstract

Chemistry Chemistry, Inorganic & Nuclear Chemistry, Organic Physical Sciences Science & Technology
The commercially-available metathesis pre-catalyst M-23 has been evaluated alongside new complex [RuCl2((3-phenyl)indenylidene)(PPh3)(SIPrOMe)] (1), which bears a para-methoxy-substituted N-heterocyclic carbene ligand. Several model metathesis reactions could be conducted using only parts-permillion levels of ruthenium catalyst. The effects of the different NHC ligands on reactivity have been explored.
