The use of an aryl allyl ether and an arylallyl group as masked vinyl ether and 1-propenylphenyl groups for ring-closing metathesis (RCM) leading to the synthesis of benzo-fused heterocycles was demonstrated by using a ruthenium-mediated isomerization followed by a ruthenium-mediated RCM reaction. This resulted in the syntheses of a variety of products including two substituted benzo[1,4]dioxins, a naphtho[2,3-b][1,4]dioxin, a 2H-chromene and a benzo[b]furan.

A small library of 1,4-benzodioxins and 4H-1,4-benzoxazines was synthesized from the corresponding bis-allyloxy precursors by way of an initial isomerization to the bis-vinyloxy compounds, followed by a ring-closing metathesis using the second generation Grubbs' catalyst (G2). A related strategy, starting from benzene-1,2-dithiol and 2-mercaptophenol, afforded benzodithiin and 1,4-benzoxathiin, respectively.
