Isolation of cyclic (alkyl) amino carbenes (cAACs) in 2005 has been a major achievement in
the field of stable carbenes due to their better electronic properties. cAACs and bicyclic …

The isolation of cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbenes (CAACs) and N, N′‐diamidocarbenes
(DACs) has opened up new avenues in the field of carbene chemistry due to their unique …

Discovered in 2005, cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbenes (CAACs) have led to numerous
discoveries in the field of ruthenium olefin metathesis, until then largely dominated by the …

One of the most exciting scientific challenges today is the catalytic degradation of non‐
biodegradable polymers into value‐added chemical feedstocks. The mild pyrolysis of …

An expedient access to the first optically pure ruthenium complexes containing C 1-
symmetric cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene ligands is reported. They demonstrate excellent …

New Blechert-type ruthenium complexes containing cyclic (alkyl)(amino) carbene (CAAC)
