  • Patent number: 7034096
    Abstract: This invention relates generally to synthetic procedures that include the step of ring-opening metathesis of cyclic olefins and reaction with an acyclic diene co-reactant to produce olefin macrocycles by ring expansion, or alternatively. The ring expansion of the cyclic olefin is provided by three types of sequential olefin metathesis (ring-opening, cross, and ring-closing olefin metathesis). More particularly, the invention pertains to synthesis of olefin macrocycles via olefin metathesis reactions using a Group 8 transition metal complex as the metathesis catalyst. Macrocycles provided herein have a variety of uses in the pharmaceutical, biomedical, organic synthesis and chemical industries, such as the production of crown ethers that are useful as metal complexing species.

  • Patent number: 6884859
    Abstract: A method is provided for synthesizing a polymer in a controlled fashion using a ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) reaction, wherein polymerization is carried out using a catalytically effective amount of an olefin metathesis catalyst and a bridged bicyclic or polycyclic olefin monomer that contains at least two heteroatoms directly or indirectly linked to each other. Preferred catalysts are Group 8 transition metal complexes, particularly complexes of Ru and Os. Such complexes include the ruthenium bisphosphine complex (PCy3)2(Cl)2Ru?CHPh (1) and the ruthenium carbene complex (IMesH2)(PCy3)(Cl)2Ru?CHPh (2). The invention also provides novel regioregular polymers synthesized using the aforementioned methodology, wherein the polymers may be saturated, unsaturated, protected, and/or telechelic. An exemplary polymer is poly((vinyl alcohol)2-alt-methylene)(MVOH).
