Abstract

Abstract The tandem catalysis of ring-closing metathesis/atom transfer radical reactions was investigated with the homobimetallic ruthenium–indenylidene complex [(p-cymene) Ru (μ- Cl) 3 RuCl (3-phenyl-1-indenylidene)(PCy 3)](1) to generate active species in situ. The two catalytic processes were first carried out independently in a case study before the whole sequence was optimized and applied to the synthesis of several polyhalogenated bicyclic ...
