Hemilabile ligands can release a free coordination site "on demand" of an incoming nucleophilic substrate while occupying it otherwise. This is believed to increase the thermal stability and activity of catalytic systems and therefore prevent decomposition via free coordination sites. In this investigation chelating pyridinyl-alcoholato ligands were identified as possible hemilabile ligands for incorporation into the second generation Grubbs precatalyst. The O,N-alcoholato ligands with different steric bulk could be successfully incorporated into the precatalysts. The incorporation of the sterically hindered, hemilabile O,N-ligands improved the thermal stability, activity, selectivity and lifetime of these complexes towards the metathesis of 1-octene. A decrease in the activity of the second generation Grubbs precatalyst was additionally observed after incorporating a hemilabile O,N-ligand with two phenyl groups into the system, while increasing their lifetime.

The catalytic activity of ruthenium alkylidene complexes [RuCl(LX(ON)(=CHPh)] [L = H2IMes and PCy3, ON = 1-(2′-pyridinyl)cyclohexan-1-olate)], bearing a chelating pyridinyl-alcoholate ligand, was investigated for the metathesis of 1-octene in the absence of a solvent. Both systems were active for the metathesis of 1-octene yielding trans-7-tetradecene and ethene as the primary metathesis products. Although the activity of both systems increased with an increase in reaction temperature, the activity of [RuCl(H2IMes)(ON)(=CHPh)] started to decrease at temperatures above 70°C, with a simultaneous exponential increase in the secondary metathesis products due to double-bond isomerisation of the substrate. Although the initiation rates for these systems are slower compared to Grubbs 1 and Grubbs 2 for the metathesis of 1-octene at 60°C, they have a higher activity and longer lifetime.

Reactions of Fischer-type carbyne tungsten complexes X(CO)nWCPh (X=Cl, Br, I, n=4; X=Cp, n=2) with reduced Phillips catalyst, a chromium(II) compound surface-bound to silica, yield heterogeneous bimetallic metathesis catalysts for alkenes.The reactions probably proceed via a cycloaddition of the WC-carbyne bond with the chromium(II) atoms to give dimetallacyclopropene derivatives.The bimetallic catalysts formed by reaction with the halogeno substituted carbyne complexes are very active alkene metathesis catalysts, as demonstrated by the reaction with 1-octene.The original polymerisation activity towards 1-alkenes of the surface-bound chromium(II) atoms disappeared after reaction with carbyne complexes.
