The present application provides, among other things, compounds and methods for metathesis reactions. In some embodiments, provided compounds promote highly efficient and highly Z-selective metathesis. In some embodiments, provided compounds and methods are particularly useful for producing allyl alcohols. In some embodiments, provided compounds have the structure of formula I. In some embodiments, provided compounds comprise ruthenium, and a ligand bonded to ruthenium through a sulfur atom.

Rationally designed Ru-based catalysts for efficient Z-selective olefin metathesis are featured. The new complexes contain a dithiolate ligand and can be accessed in a single step from commercially available precursors in 68-82% yield. High efficiency and exceptional Z selectivity (93:7 to >98:2 Z:E) were achieved in ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and ring-opening/cross-metathesis (ROCM) processes; the transformations typically proceed at 22 C and are operationally simple to perform. Complete conversion was observed with catalyst loadings as low as 0.002 mol %, and turnover numbers of up to 43 000 were achieved without rigorous substrate purification or deoxygenation protocols. X-ray data and density functional theory computations provide support for key design features and shed light on mechanistic attributes.
