Synthesis of new artemisinin-derived dimers by self-cross-metathesis reaction.
[reaction: see text] New artemisinin-derived dimers, fluorinated or not, have been prepared by a self-cross metathesis reaction in the presence of first- or second-generation ruthenium catalysts without degradation of the endoperoxide bridge and with a good E/Z selectivity (up to 100:0).
