title: A single precatalyst tandem RCM-allylic oxidation sequence.
abstract: Ring closing metathesis of allyloxy styrenes and a subsequent Ru-catalyzed allylic oxidation can be combined to a tandem sequence that makes coumarins accessible using less active but more conveniently available first generation catalysts.
