Efficient ruthenium carbenoid-catalyzed cross-metathesis of allyl halides with olefins.
[reaction: see text] Cross-metatheses of allyl halides and terminal olefins mediated by catalyst 2 are reported and showed good yield and excellent E/Z selectivity. The application of these compounds as alkylating reagents is also demonstrated.
