Endo-Selective Enyne Ring- Closing Metathesis Promoted by Stereogenic-at-W Mono-Pyrrolide Complexes

The utility of W-alkylidene complexes for enyne ring-closing metathesis is demonstrated in a direct comparison with Mo-based analogs. Tungsten complexes lead to less alkyne oligomerization and higher levels of endo-selectivity and enantioselectivity.
