RESUMO
The olefin metathesis reaction has found numerous applications in organic synthesis. This is due to a number of advantages, such as the tolerance of most functional groups and sterically demanding olefins. This article reviews recent advances in the application of the metathesis reaction, particularly the metathetic cyclization of dienes and enynes, in synthesis protocols leading to (hetero)aromatic compounds.

Amidobenzylidene ruthenium chelates - latent catalysts of olefin metathesis can be easily activated by the addition of Brønsted or Lewis acids. Their activation in the presence of hydrogen chloride involves the formation of catalytically active trans-dichloro carbamatobenzylidene ruthenium chelates.
RESUMO
New phenoxybenzylidene ruthenium chelates were synthesised from the second generation Grubbs catalysts bearing a triphenylphosphine ligand (or its para-substituted analogues) by metathesis exchange with substituted 2-vinylphenols. The complexes behave like a latent catalyst and are characterized by an improved catalytic behaviour as compared to that of the known analogues, i.e., they exhibit high catalytic inactivity in their dormant forms and a profound increase in activity after activation with HCl. The strong electronic influence of substituents in the chelating ligand on the catalytic activity was demonstrated. The catalytic properties were tested in ROMP of cyclooctadien (COD) and a single selected norbornene derivative.
RESUMO
The first ruthenium-silsesquioxyl complexes have been synthesised and characterized via spectroscopic and X-ray methods. Mechanistic studies were performed and the complexes obtained were proved to be intermediates in the catalytic cycle of silylative coupling of olefins with vinylsilsesquioxane. Moreover, a mechanism for silylative coupling of styrene with vinylsilsesquioxanes was proposed.
