A new olefin metathesis catalyst has been prepared in situ by a one-step method utilizing an easy-to-prepare organic precursor and only 1 equiv of tricyclohexylphosphine ligand per ruthenium atom. The activity of the new catalytic system for the formation of five-., six-, and seven-membered disubstituted cycloalkenes via ring-closing metathesis under standard conditions is comparable to that of related highly active commercial catalysts.
