Technical Notes:
1.Metathesis catalyst, stable in air and can be used in aqueous media .
2.Catalyst of choice for the ring-opening metathesis polymerization of cycloolefins .
3.Catalyst concentration 2-3 times lower than com parable phenyI and vinyI substituted rutheniumcarbenes.
4.Excellent initiator for solvent-free polymerization and control of initiation rates and gelation times.
5.Highly selective catalyst for the ring opening/cross-metathesis of norbornene derivatives.
