Widely used in organic synthesis, this catalyst enables efficient ring-closing metathesis (RCM) reactions, making it valuable for constructing cyclic structures in pharmaceuticals and natural products. It is particularly effective in forming carbon-carbon double bonds with high selectivity and stability under various reaction conditions. Its robustness allows use in industrial-scale processes where catalyst longevity and ease of handling are important. Additionally, it supports cross-metathesis and ring-opening polymerization, useful in polymer chemistry and materials science. The catalyst’s performance in low loadings and tolerance to air and moisture make it a preferred choice in both academic and industrial research settings.
