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.
