Enantioselective Synthesis of Medium-Ring Heterocycles, Tertiary Ethers, and Tertiary Alcohols by Mo−Catalyzed Ring-Closing Metathesis
TL;DR: The Mo-catalyzed asymmetric ring-closing metathesis (ARCM) of various achiral trienes leads to the formation of medium-ring unsaturated heterocycles in high yield and with excellent enantioselectivity.

An Enantiomerically Pure Adamantylimido Molybdenum Alkylidene Complex. An Effective New Catalyst for Enantioselective Olefin Metathesis
TL;DR: These studies show that the chiral Mo catalyst exists exclusively as the syn isomer and that it offers unique reactivity and selectivity profiles in asymmetric olefin metathesis.

TL;DR: In this article, two new biphenolate ligands were prepared starting from 3,3‘-di-tert-butyl-5,5‘,6,6-biphenyl via deprotonation of the 6 and 6‘ methyl group with KO-t-Bu/n-BuLi, reaction with dichlorodimethylsilane or chlorotrim methylsilane, and deprotection with boron tribromide.

Enantioselective Synthesis of Medium-Ring Heterocycles, Tertiary Ethers, and Tertiary Alcohols by Mo-Catalyzed Ring-Closing Metathesis.
TL;DR: The Mo-catalyzed asymmetric ring-closing metathesis (ARCM) of various achiral trienes leads to the formation of medium-ring unsaturated heterocycles in high yield and with excellent enantioselectivity as mentioned in this paper.
