Ruthenium-catalyzed isomerization of terminal olefins: applications to synthesis.

(Chemical Equation Presented) In, out, olefin about: A ruthenium hydride complex derived from the Grubbs second-generation metathesis catalyst has proven to be an efficient catalyst for the selective isomerization of terminal olefins to the corresponding propenyl derivatives (see scheme). This metho...
