The N-heterocyclic carbene, coordinated ruthenium benzylidene complex [(H(2)IMes)(PCy3)(Cl)(2)Ru=CHPh], a highly active olefin metathesis catalyst, is known to convert into a very fast initiator in the presence of pyridine or 3-bromopyridine. Computational studies presented in this work reveal the mechanistic basis of this Phenomenon. Depending on the size of the olefin, the reaction follows either a dissociative or associative mechanism.
