Provided herein are ruthenium complexes, and processes of preparation thereof. Also provided are methods of their use as a metathesis catalyst.
Olefin metathesis provides an efficient method for the construction of carbon-carbon double bonds and has emerged as a powerful tool in preparation of cyclic organic molecules and polymeric materials. Some common olefin metathesis reactions include ring closure metathesis (RCM), acyclic diene metathesis polymerization (ADMET), ring opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP), ring opening metathesis (ROM), and cross metathesis (CM).
In recent years, olefin metathesis has been increasingly used by the pharmaceutical industry to synthesize biologically active molecules (Wallace et al., “A Double Ring Closing Metathesis Reaction in the Rapid, Enantioselective Synthesis of NK-1 Receptor Antagonists,” Org. Lett. 2001, 3, 671-674; Kanada et al., “Total Synthesis of the Potent Antitumor macrolides Pladienolide B and D,”Angew. Chem., Int. Ed. 2007, 46, 4350-4355). The increasing use of olefin metathesis in pharmaceutical industry has increased the demand for more efficient olefin metathesis catalysts.

Generally, the nomenclature used herein and the laboratory procedures in chemistry described herein are those well known and commonly employed in the art. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein generally have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs.
The term “alkyl” refers to a linear or branched saturated monovalent hydrocarbon radical, wherein the alkyl may optionally be substituted as described herein.

In certain embodiments, the alkyl is a linear saturated monovalent hydrocarbon radical that has 1 to 20 (C1-20), 1 to 15 (C1-15), 1 to 10 (C1-10), or 1 to 6 (C1-6) carbon atoms, or branched saturated monovalent hydrocarbon radical of 3 to 20 (C3-20), 3 to 15 (C3-15), 3 to 10 (C3-10), or 3 to 6 (C3-6) carbon atoms. As used herein, linear C1-6 and branched C3-6 alkyl groups are also referred as “lower alkyl.” Examples of alkyl groups include, but are not limited to, methyl, ethyl, propyl (including all isomeric forms), n-propyl, isopropyl, butyl (including all isomeric forms), n-butyl, isobutyl, sec-butyl, t-butyl, pentyl (including all isomeric forms), and hexyl (including all isomeric forms).
The term “alkenyl” refers to a linear or branched monovalent hydrocarbon radical, which contains one or more, in one embodiment, one to five, in another embodiment, one, carbon-carbon double bond(s). The alkenyl may be optionally substituted as described herein. The term “alkenyl” embraces radicals having a “cis” or “trans” configuration or a mixture thereof, or alternatively, a “Z” or “E” configuration or a mixture thereof, as appreciated by those of ordinary skill in the art. For example, C2-6 alkenyl refers to a linear unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon radical of 2 to 6 carbon atoms or a branched unsaturated monovalent hydrocarbon radical of 3 to 6 carbon atoms. In certain embodiments, the alkenyl is a linear monovalent hydrocarbon radical of 2 to 20 (C2-20), 2 to 15 (C2-15), 2 to 10 (C2-10), or 2 to 6 (C2-6) carbon atoms, or a branched monovalent hydrocarbon radical of 3 to 20 (C3-20), 3 to 15 (C3-15), 3 to 10 (C3-10), or 3 to 6 (C3-6) carbon atoms. Examples of alkenyl groups include, but are not limited to, ethenyl, propen-1-yl, propen-2-yl, allyl, butenyl, and 4-methylbutenyl.
The term “alkynyl” refers to a linear or branched monovalent hydrocarbon radical, which contains one or more, in one embodiment, one to five, in another embodiment, one, carbon-carbon triple bond(s). The alkynyl may be optionally substituted as described herein.

B. Ring Closure Metathesis
All reactions were performed in 1,2-dichloroethane at 0.005 M with N2 bubbling through the reaction mixture. For the substrates depicted in Scheme 7, the RCM reactions were carried out on a 100-mg scale; whereas for the substrates depicted in Scheme 8, the typical scale of the reaction was 200-250 mg. The catalyst was added in solution in 0.5 mL of DCE, in the pre-heated reaction mixture. The conversion of the starting material was followed via TLC and/or HPLC. Products are isolated after flash chromatography (note: compound BJ was stirred with charcoal and filtered on celite prior to purification).
The experimental results of catalytic activity for the different catalysts are listed in Tables 1 to 7, respectively.
