Studies towards the synthesis of novel tridentate ligands for use in ruthenium metathesis catalysts
This work has focussed on the preparation of a variety of tridentate ligands, designed to form ruthenium complexes as potential metathesis catalysts. Various approaches to the tridentate, malonate-tethered imidazolidine system have been investigated, and a promising route to accessing ligands of thi...
