Alkene metathesis catalyst development has made significant progress over recent years. Research in metathesis catalyst design has endeavoured to tackle three key issues: those of (i) catalyst efficiency and activity, (ii) substrate scope and selectivity—particularly stereoselective metathesis reactions—and (iii) the minimization of metal impurities and catalyst recycling. This article describes a brief history of metathesis catalyst development, followed by a survey of more recent research, with a particular emphasis on ruthenium catalysts.

Abstract from Catalysts & Catalysed Reactions 2007

A review, with 108 references, of the recent development of metathesis catalysts, with a particular emphasis on catalytic ruthenium complexes.
