Isomerization Reactions of Allylic Alcohols into Ketones with the Grubbs Reagent

Allylic alcohols were isomerized into ketones by the action of the Grubbs reagent. Some model alcohols were prepared and tested under similar conditions to reveal that less substituted alkenes rearrange more easily. More hindered alcohols are stable under these conditions, however, the simple allyli...
