All primary data files of measurements and processed data of the journal article from Buchmeiser group can be found here. Procedures, reaction conditions and used analytical equipment is discussed in detail in the experimental section or the supporting information of the paper. Productivities in alkyne metathesis reactions were examined via gas-chromatography / mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis and can be found in the GC-MS folder. Novel complexes were examined via nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and the spectra can be found in the NMR folder. The NMR folder also contains NMR experiments mentioned in the paper and shown in the Supplementary Information. NMR Spectra are named according to the numbering in the publication. All crystal data mentioned in the paper can be found in the related datasets. NMR data is in the folder NMR divided in NMR experiments and compounds which consists of the NMR spectra of pure compounds. GC-MS data is in the GC-MS folder and organized by tables and complexes.
