(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.
