  • Multicoordinated metal complexes for use in metathesis reactions
    Patent number: 8927670
    Abstract: Improved catalysts useful in alkyne or olefin metathesis are made by bringing into contact a multi-coordinated metal complex comprising a multidentate Schiff base ligand, and one or more other ligands, with a selected activating compound under conditions such that at least partial cleavage of a bond between the metal and the multidentate Schiff base ligand of said metal complex occurs.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 18, 2006
    Date of Patent: January 6, 2015
    Assignee: RIMTEC Corporation
    Inventors: David Schaubroeck, Stijn Monsaert, Nele Ledoux, Francis Verpoort, Renata Drozdzak
