Abstract

"Catch-and-release": Simple alk-1-enes are effective at liberating buta-1,3-dienes from vinyl alkylidene ruthenium complexes, as well as undergoing alkene-alkylidene exchange with enyne substrates to regenerate the alk-1-ene. This ability to "catch-andrelease" ruthenium alkylidenes allows alk-1-enes higher than ethylene ("Mori's conditions") to be used as a co-catalysts in terminal enyne metathesis with the Grubbs generation I complex (L=PCy3). © 2010 Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
