Synthesis of unprotected and borane-protected cyclic phosphines using Ru- and Mo- based olefin metathesis catalysts.

Ru- and Mo-based catalysts can be used in ring closing metathesis (RCM) reactions to synthesise cyclic phosphines protected as their borane complexes. The compatibility of the Schrock Mo-catalyst and the N-heterocyclic carbene Ru-catalysts with this class of substrates is particularly noteworthy as...
