An efficient method for the construction of five- and six-membered cyclic vinyl ethers from unsaturated esters using stoichiometric titanium reagents to convert the esters to acyclic olefinic enol ethers which are then transformed to the desired products by catalytic ring-closing olefin metathesis with a molybdenum alkylidene complex is described.
