Abstract
In this issue of Chem Catalysis, Sytniczuk, Kajetanowicz, and Grela report sterically tuned Cyclic(Alkyl)(Amino)Carbene (CAAC) ligands to protect the requisite Ru-methylidene ([Ru]=CH2) intermediate present during ethenolysis of renewable fatty acid methyl esters (FAME). Surprising structural characteristics of the Ru-CAAC complexes resulted in TON up to 740,000 and sub-ppm catalyst loadings.
