A tutorial review of stereoretentive olefin metathesis based on ruthenium dithiolate catalysts

Stereoretentive olefin metathesis based on ruthenium dithiolate complexes has become a very active field of research within the past years. This unique catalyst class is able to kinetically produce both Z- and E-alkenes in high stereochemical purity (typically >95:5) starting from stereochemicall...
