A series of tunable CAAC-based ruthenium benzylidene complexes with increased
lipophilicity derived from a ketone being a large-scale produced key substrate for a popular …

Since the development of imidazo [1, 5-a] pyridinylidenes (imidazo [1, 5-a] pyridine
carbenes: IPCs) by Lassaletta, Alcarazo, and Glorius, these have been applied as ligands in …

Organic circularly polarized luminescence (CPL)‐active molecular emitters featuring
dynamic propeller‐like luminophores were prepared in one step from cyclic (alkyl)(amino) …

The chemistry of cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene (CAAC) ligands is presented. Their electronic
structure is discussed and put into the context of conventional N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) …

Catalysts bearing cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbenes (CAACs) and unsymmetrical N-heterocyclic
carbenes (uNHCs) demonstrate high productivity in metathetical chemical transformations …

The first Blechert-type ruthenium complexes containing cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene
(CAAC) ligands are reported. These catalysts demonstrate remarkable thermal stability in …

Chiral NHCs have found numerous applications as ligands for transition metals and in their
own right for asymmetric catalysis. Here, we report a synthetic route from L-malic acid to …

Abstract Asymmetric Olefin Metathesis (AOM) represents a highly versatile synthetic tool to
lead to relevant chiral building blocks with excellent enantiopurity. As the Z‐alkene moiety is …

The first studies on [Ru]‐catalyzed Asymmetric Ring‐Closing Ene‐Yne Metathesis
(ARCEYM) are disclosed in this communication. The desymmetrization of achiral ene‐diyne …

Deprotonation of an N-arylated iminium salt affords a new, but unstable, acyclic amino
carbene (AAC), which can be efficiently trapped at low temperatures with selected s-, p-, and …
