-
Page/Page column 18-19, (2018/05/27)
The invention relates to the use of ruthenium complexes, which are homogeneous catalysts and/or precatalysts of the olefin metathesis reaction, which lead to the production of alkenes containing an internal (non-terminal) double C=C bond.

The ruthenium catalysed cross-metathesis of fatty-esters arising from plant oils with acrylonitrile is presented. The resulting linear nitrile ester products have potential as new intermediates for polyamides synthesis. A series of commercially available catalysts are able to promote the transformation of methyl 10-undecenoate 1, dimethyl octadec-9-en-1,18-dioate 5 and methyl ricinoleate 9 with acrylonitrile and a protocol based on the slow addition of catalyst allowed TONs as high as 1900 (92% yield) to be reached for cross-metathesis with acrylonitrile. These cross-metathesis conditions have been applied to methyl acrylate and TONs up to 7600 were obtained.
