Abstract
The initial product of the metathesis of deca-2,8-diene with metathesis catalysts formed from either Me4Sn–WCl6 or Me3Al2Cl3–(Ph3P)2(NO)2Cl2Mo is propene; labelling of the terminal groups of the diene and the alkylating agents gives a labelling pattern in the propene that is best explained in terms of generation of a carbene in the initiation step from the alkylating agent.Keywords
