Ruthenium complexes nuclear magnetic resonance

Ruthenium complex (4a) provided a new general route to alternating copolymerization utilizing cyclooctene and diacrylates via olefin metathesis (equation 65). Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies demonstrated that under the reaction conditions cyclic monomers like cyclooctene... 

Dimethyl sulfoxide solutions of [(CgHe)RuCl2]2 were shown to react with nucleophiles such as H , OH , or CN . Nuclear magnetic resonance studies showed the presence of cyclohexadienyl complexes, but the compounds were too unstable to be isolated, and the identity of the other ligands coordinated to the ruthenium atom is uncertain (462, 464).
