T1  - alpha,beta-Unsaturated delta-Valerolactones through RCM-Isomerization Sequence
JF  - Synlett : accounts and rapid communications in synthetic organic chemistry
N2  - alpha,beta-Unsaturated d-lactones are accessible via a sequential ring-closing metathesis (RCM) double-bond migration reaction starting from butenoates of allyl alcohols. This approach proceeds efficiently with lower catalyst loadings and higher initial substrate concentrations compared to the alternative RCM of acrylates derived from homoallylic alcohols.

T1  - Synthesis of chromanes through RCM-Transfer hydrogenation
JF  - Synthesis
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.
