  • HETEROGENEOUS ALKYNE METATHESIS
    Publication number: 20060281938
    Abstract: The present invention provides heterogeneous organometallic catalysts for alkyne metathesis, including the metathesis of internal alkynes. Organometallic precursors are covalently bonded to the oxygen atoms of metal oxide supports to form catalysts having carbyne functionality. The heterogeneous catalysts provide improved turn-over frequencies at lower reaction temperatures than conventional catalysts.
