Synthesis of Bioactive Macrocycles Involving Ring-Closing Metathesis Strategy
This review reports the synthesis of various bioactive macrocycles, involving ring-closing metathesis as a key step, developed since ca. 2000. These macrocycles exhibited biological activities such as antiviral, antifungal, antibacterial, and anticancer ...

Beyond catalyst deactivation: cross-metathesis involving olefins containing N-heteroaromatics
Alkenes containing N-heteroaromatics are known to be poor partners in cross-metathesis reactions, probably due to catalyst deactivation caused by the presence of a nitrogen atom.

1,7‐Digallatetracarborane: Between Nucleophilic closo‐Cluster and “Inverse Sandwich” Digallylene
A dianionic π‐ligand is used to make a Janus‐type twofold complex with low‐valent gallium Ga(+I). The resulting compound can be seen as and reveals the reactivity of both: a Wade‐type closo‐carborane cluster with nucleophilic Ga‐sites, as well as π‐ligand stabilized Ga(I) atoms in an inverse sandwich compound.

Efficient catalytic alkyne metathesis with a fluoroalkoxy-supported ditungsten(III) complex
The molybdenum and tungsten complexes M2(OR)6 (Mo2F6, M = Mo, R = C(CF3)2Me; W2F3, M = W, R = OC(CF3)Me2) were synthesized as bimetallic congeners of the highly active alkyne metathesis catalysts [MesC≡M{OC(CF3)nMe3−n}] (MoF6, M = Mo, n = 2; WF3, M = W ...

A Synthetic Approach Toward a Brominated Oxocane Labdane Diterpenoid Isolated From
The synthesis of a labdane oxocane epoxy-alcohol is described starting from the Wieland–Miescher ketone derivative via ring closing olefin metathesis of a diene derivative, targeting the total synthesis of a brominated oxocane labdane diterpenoid ...

Heavier Alkyne‐Ni0 Complexes, [R2E2·Ni] (E = Sn, Pb), Exhibiting σ‐Complex Character
Using a reductive group elimination strategy, heavier alkyne (LEEL; E = Sn, Pb) complexes of Ni0 are accessed. In contrast to classical alkyne coordination, these systems are best described as σ‐complexes, driven by ligand‐induced constraints and the established poor π‐bonding in heavier alkyne analogues.

Nucleophilic Gallyl Anions Enable Ga─Au Bimetallic Ammonia Activation
Unlocking gallyl nucleophiles: Counterion control enables formation of an unsupported gallyl─gold complex. Gold coordination induces a polarity switch at gallium, enabling cooperative activation of NH3 and related N─H/O─H substrates under mild conditions.

Tandem Ring‐Opening–Ring‐Closing Metathesis for Functional Metathesis Catalysts [PDF]
AbstractUse of a tandem ring‐opening–ring‐closing metathesis (RORCM) strategy for the synthesis of functional metathesis catalysts is reported. Ring opening of 7‐substituted norbornenes and subsequent ring‐closing metathesis forming a thermodynamically stable 6‐membered ring lead to a very efficient synthesis of new catalysts from commercially ...
