Highly Active Molybdenum-Alkylidyne Catalysts for Alkyne Metathesis: Synthesis from the Nitrides by Metathesis with Alkynes

摘要

Olefin metathesis has had an enormous impact on synthetic chemistry over the past two decades,due to great improvements in catalyst design.Although highly active homogeneous catalysts for the analogous alkyne metathesis reaction have been known for just as long,the latter process has seen less use until recently.
