Homobimetallic and heterobimetallic alkylidene complexes of ruthenium containing N-heterocyclic carbene ligands

摘要

The invention relates to complexes of ruthenium of the structural formula I where X is an anionic ligand, Z is a monodentate to tridentate ligand which contains a metal and is nonionically bound to the ruthenium center, R1 and R2 are identical or different and are each hydrogen or/and a hydrocarbon group, but may also form a ring, and Ligand L is an N-heterocyclic carbene, and also to a process for preparing acyclic olefins having two or more carbon atoms or/and cyclic olefins having three or more carbon atoms and the use of at least one complex of the formula I in olefin metathesis.
