Synthesis of Conjugated Linear and Cyclic Polyynes by Selective Alkyne Metathesis. [PDF]
The formation of polyynes with an odd number of conjugated triple bonds is challenging, particularly for complex architectures since most established methods rely on irreversible C–C bond‐forming reactions. To address this, we have developed the synthesis of triynes via alkyne metathesis.

Metathesis Reactions of Carbohydrates: Recent Highlights in Cross‐Metathesis
AbstractMetathetical processes play a prominent role in the development of useful transformations because of their mildness, tolerance of functional groups, and synthetic potential. On the other hand, carbohydrates have gained well‐deserved relevance in the study of biological processes.

Light-induced olefin metathesis
Light activation is a most desirable property for catalysis control. Among the many catalytic processes that may be activated by light, olefin metathesis stands out as both academically motivating and practically useful.

Functionalized hyperbranched polymers via olefin metathesis [PDF]
Hyperbranched polymers are highly branched, three-dimensional macromolecules which are closely related to dendrimers and are typically prepared via a one-pot polycondensation of AB_(n≥2) monomers.^1 Although hyperbranched macromolecules lack the ...

Conformations of N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands in Ruthenium Complexes Relevant to Olefin Metathesis [PDF]
The structure of ruthenium-based olefin metathesis catalyst 3 and model π-complex 5 in solution and in the solid state are reported. The N-tolyl ligands, due to their lower symmetry than the traditional N-mesityl substituents, complicate this analysis ...
