Desymmetrizations forming tetrasubstituted olefins using enantioselective olefin metathesis

摘要

Figure presented Highly reactive chiral Ru-based catalysts possessing C_1-symmetric N-heterocyclic carbene ligands adorned with one N-alkyl group and one N-aryl group were evaluated in asymmetric desymmetrizations to form cyclic products possessing a tetrasubstituted olefin.
