Aqueous Olefin Metathesis

Abstract: According to popular belief, oxygen and water are the natural enemies of organometallic reactions and therefore must be excluded rigorously from the reaction vessel. This belief is founded in the case of the highly reactive nucleophilic metal alkylidene complexes that were used in early catalytic olefin metathesis. However, owing to the high stability of the ruthenium carbene complexes introduced by Grubbs, metathesis in water has become reality.

“…Gratifyingly, these functional groups are well tolerated by the rutheniumbased metathesis catalysts. Therefore, it is assumed that aqueous olefin metathesis [121,122] is a promising approach, not only for peptide synthesis but also in the field of protein chemistry and bioconjugation [123].…”

“…In this sense, the development of a plethora of new metal catalyst (usually based in ruthenium) and the optimization of the reaction conditions has led to the establishment of alkene metathesis as a general and reliable methodology in organic synthesis. Several types of metathesis transformations (RCM (ring-closing metathesis) and CM (crossmetathesis), among others) have been carried out in water by: (i) introducing modifications in the catalyst structure; (ii) using co-solvents; or (iii) employing surfactants [73][74][75]. Thus, in this section, we cover the fruitful combination of two different Ru-catalyzed metathesis protocols (RCM and CM) in aqueous media with several biocatalyzed organic reactions [76][77][78][79][80].…”

“…The progress in this area has enabled several metal-catalyzed reactions in buffer solutions (e.g., olefin metathesis [99][100][101], Pd-catalyzed hydrogenation [102], and C-C coupling reactions [103]). Several methods have also been applied for improving enzymes as biocatalysts.…”
