Polyethylene glycols (PEGs) are non-toxic, biodegradable and sustainable organic solvents, which find a large application in the chemical and pharmaceutical industry. In this study, we present the ring-closing metathesis reaction (RCM) in PEG under microw

Ruthenium-based catalysts bearing quaternary ammonium groups in their N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) fragments and different counter-ions were synthesised and tested in various olefin metathesis transformations. Differences in catalytic activity in correlation with the nature of the present counter-ion were revealed. The unique properties of the described catalysts allow for the effective preparation of a variety of metathesis products with low ruthenium contamination and under green chemistry conditions.

A novel six-coordinated high-valence cationic ruthenium carbyne complex bearing two liable pyridine ligands was prepared in high yield by the reaction of the ruthenium-based complex (IMesH2)(Cl)2(C 5H5N)2RuCHPh [IMesH2=1,3-dimesityl- 4,5-dihydroimida-zol-2-ylidene] with excess iodine as an oxidant in CH 2Cl2 at 25 °C under N2. The new ruthenium carbyne-based complex shows moderate to good catalytic activity for ring-closing metathesis reactions. Importantly, no double bond isomerization by-product was produced at elevated reaction temperatures (100 °C-137 °C) in the reaction catalyzed by the synthesized ruthenium carbyne complex. A mechanism involving the in situ conversion of the ruthenium carbyne through the addition of an iodide to the carbyne carbon was also proposed, and DFT calculations were performed to explain the initiating mechanism.
