The high stability and functional group compatibility of ruthenium carbene complexes confer them a great ability to catalyze domino processes. For this reason, the combination of metathesis reactions with additional transformations in a domino fashion has been exploited extensively, with the result of expanding the utility of ruthenium carbene complexes beyond that of just olefin metathesis. Among those domino processes, it is worth mentioning the sequence of cross-metathesis/intramolecular Michael addition, which allows for the generation of a wide variety of carbo- and heterocycles in a very simple manner, taking advantage of the benefits of domino reactions. Carbon-, oxygen- and nitrogen-centered nucleophiles are good partners in this protocol, the versatility of which has been illustrated with the synthesis of several biologically important compounds.1 Introduction2 Cross Metathesis/Intramolecular Aza-Michael Addition Sequences3 Cross Metathesis/Intramolecular Oxa-Michael Addition Sequences4 Cross Metathesis/Intramolecular Michael Addition Sequences5 Conclusions and Outlook

<div>Catalytic carbonyl-olefin metathesis reactions have recently been developed as a powerful tool for carbon-carbon bond</div><div>formation. However, currently available synthetic protocols rely exclusively on aryl ketone substrates while the corresponding aliphatic analogs remain elusive. We herein report the development of Lewis acid-catalyzed carbonyl-olefin ring-closing metathesis reactions for aliphatic ketones. Mechanistic investigations are consistent with a distinct mode of activation relying on the in situ formation of a homobimetallic singly-bridged iron(III)-dimer as the active catalytic species. These “superelectrophiles” function as more powerful Lewis acid catalysts that form upon association of individual iron(III)-monomers. While this mode of Lewis acid activation has previously been postulated to exist, it has not yet been applied in a catalytic setting. The insights presented are expected to enable further advancement in Lewis acid catalysis by building upon the activation principle of “superelectrophiles” and broaden the current scope of catalytic carbonyl-olefin metathesis reactions.</div>
