摘要

A series of olefin metathesis catalysts with modified isopropoxybenzylidene ligands were synthesised, and the effects of ligands on the rate of metathesis investigated. Increased steric hinderance ortho to the isopropoxy group enhanced reaction rates. In the case of N- heterocyclic carbene complexes, decreasing electron density at both the chelating oxygen atom and the Ru C bond accelerated reaction rates appreciably. Catalysts containing a ...
