Abstract
An in situ preparation of highly stereoretentive dithiolate ruthenium-based metathesis catalysts avoids the isolation of air-sensitive intermediates. The procedure can be use for performing cross-metathesis reactions without a glovebox, and on a small scale even Schlenk techniques are not required.
