New tandem catalysis: Preparation of cyclic enol ethers through a ruthenium-catalyzed ring-closing metathesis-olefin isomerization sequence

Article abstract of DOI:10.1021/ja028044q

Tandem reactions that proceed with a single metal catalyst precursor offer novel opportunities for developing efficient new reaction sequences. In this regard, reaction conditions have been identified that allows for a tandem ring-closing metathesis-olefi
