N2  - A sequential ruthenium-catalyzed ring-closing metathesis-transfer hydrogenation sequence has been established as a synthesis of chromanes starting from 2-(allyloxy)styrenes. The sequence requires only one precatalyst, the first-generation Grubbs catalyst, which is converted into a ruthenium hydride species in situ. Propan-2-ol serves as a chemical trigger for the formation of the ruthenium hydride and as hydrogen source.
