Abstract

Amidobenzylidene ruthenium chelates - latent catalysts of olefin metathesis can be easily activated by the addition of Brønsted or Lewis acids. Their activation in the presence of hydrogen chloride involves the formation of catalytically active trans-dichloro carbamatobenzylidene ruthenium chelates.
