Latest Patents
Nicole Kindler holds a patent for the "Synthesis of functionalized macrocycles by ring closing metathesis." This invention focuses on an improved method for creating macrocyclic products with 12 or more ring atoms. These products contain one or more polar functional groups on the ring and/or heteroatoms within the ring. The process utilizes ring closing metathesis (RCM) of suitably substituted diene precursors, even when the substrates lack conformational preorganization. The invention employs metal carbene complexes of Ru, Mo, W, Re, and Os as catalysts or catalyst precursors, which are tolerant towards the respective functional groups. The preferred catalysts are ruthenium complexes of a specific general type. This innovative process can be applied to the synthesis of various compounds, including olfactory compounds, perfumary ingredients, pheromones, crown ethers, antibiotics, and pharmaceuticals for both human and veterinary medicine.
