Abstract:Cross metathesis reactions of multiple bonds, such as alkenes and alkynes, have undoubtedly revolutionized various fields and become one of the most efficient strategies in organic synthesis. In contrast, metathesis reactions of more naturally abundant yet less reactive σ-bond bonds remain less developed, especially for polar C–X bonds, the existing activation modes are rather limited and reactions often occur between two C–X bonds of the same type. Here, inspired by the natural S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) cycl… Show more
