Abstract
The formation of the trisubstituted cycloalkene 7 by RCM of diene 5 proceeds via the acyclic dimer 6, thus demonstrating the ready reversibility of olefin metathesis if catalyzed by “second generation” ruthenium carbene complexes such as 2−4. When applied to acrylate 11, these catalysts trigger a cyclooligomerization process that evolves with time and serves as key step en route to the lactide antibiotic (−)-pyrenophorin 8.
