The invention pertains to the use of Group 8 transition metal carbene complexes as catalysts for olefin cross-metathesis reactions. In particular, ruthenium and osmium alkylidene complexes substituted with an N-heterocyclic carbene ligand are used to catalyze cross-metathesis reactions to provide a variety of substituted and functionalized olefins, including phosphonate-substituted olefins, directly halogenated olefins, 1,1,2-trisubstituted olefins, and quaternary allylic olefins. The invention further provides a method for creating functional diversity using the aforementioned complexes to catalyze cross-metathesis reactions of a first olefinic reactant, which may or may not be substituted with a functional group, with each of a plurality of different olefinic reactants, which may or may not be substituted with functional groups, to give a plurality of structurally distinct olefinic products. The methodology of the invention is also useful in facilitating the stereoselective synthesis of 1,2-disubstituted olefins in the cis configuration.

SN2′ (γ) substitutions of δ-substituted allylic acetates with Grignard reagents and copper catalysts proceed with high diastereoselectivities. With benzyloxy, methoxymethoxy, and tert-butyldimethylsiloxy groups, reactions favor the anti-isomer with selectivities up to anti:syn = >99:1. With a hydroxyl group, selectivities are reversed and the syn-isomer is favored with selectivities up to anti:syn = 1:99.
