A highly robust and recyclable Hoveyda-Grubbs' second generation ruthenium type catalyst immobilised on polyethylene glycol is conveniently prepared from Grubbs' second generation catalyst. The catalyst performs ring-closing metathesis of various di-and tri-substituted olefins efficiently in dichloromethane in air.
Small-molecule N-heterocyclic-carbene-containing olefin-metathesis catalysts for use in water

(Chemical Equation Presented) ROMPing around in water: Two well-defined, small-molecule olefin-metathesis catalysts (1 and 2) are introduced. While they are insufficiently stable to mediate most cross-metathesis reactions in water, these catalysts competently mediate ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and ring-closing metathesis reactions in an aqueous environment.
