Mo-Based Complexes with Two Aryloxides and a Pentafluoroimido Ligand: Catalysts for Efficient Z-Selective Synthesis of a Macrocyclic Trisubstituted Alkene by Ring-Closing Metathesis
Olefin metathesis catalysts for controlling the formation of trisubstituted macrocyclic Z alkenes have been developed. The most effective complexes are Mo alkylidenes with a pentafluorophenylimido group and two large aryloxide ligands. The macrocyclic lactone precursor to anticancer agents epothilon...
