This study reports the cross-metathesis of bicyclic β-pinene, acyclic cis-3- methylpent-2-ene terpenes and the natural rubber with functionalized olefins, a route for the functionalization of the carbon-carbon double bond of natural products to obtain aliphatic unsaturated esters. The production of unsaturated esters from β-pinene and cis-3- methylpent-2-ene via cross-metathesis reaction with dimethyl maleate and diethyl maleate in the presence of the ruthenium-alkylidene [Ru(Cl)2(=CHPh)(1,3-bis(2,4,6- trimethylphenyl)-2-imidazolidinylidene)(PCy3)] (I), [Ru(Cl)2(=CH(o-isopropoxyphenylmethylene))( 1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) -2-imidazolidinylidene)] (II) and rutheniumvinylidene [RuCl2(=C=CH(p-C6H4CF3))(PCy3)2] (III) was carried out. Results showed that the reaction of β-pinene with diethyl maleate using II catalyst produced unsaturated esters with 43 % selectivity. I and III catalysts showed low activity toward the cross-metathesis of β-pinene and dimethyl maleate. A survey about the cross-metathesis of acyclic cis-3-methylpent-2-ene with diethyl maleate by II catalyst was also studied. The formation of ethyl but-2-enoate and ethyl-3-methylpent-2-enoate products was highly selective by 63 %. The unsaturated esters formation from the cross-metathesis degradation of natural rubber (99.9 % cis-polyisoprene) with dimethyl maleate and diethyl maleate using I-III catalysts was accomplished as well. I and II catalysts showed high activity in the degradation of natural rubber with diethyl maleate to produce the low molecular weight of oligomers unsaturated ester products (Mn = 1 x 103 g mol-1) with isoprene units of m = 10 – 27 and yields ranging from 68 to 94 %.

A set of experiments in surface-initiated ring-opening metathesis polymerization, including end-functionalization of growing brushes and contact angle/cyclic voltammetry measurements. We report preparation and CV of two different conjugated polymer films, and several endgroup and sidechain functionalization experiments using cross-metathesis and active ester substitution.<br>

<div> <div> <div> <div> <p>The synthesis of conjugated triynes by molybdenum-catalyzed alkyne metathesis is reported. Strategic to the success of this approach is the utilization of sterically-hindered diynes that allowed for the site- selective alkyne metathesis to produce the desired con- jugated triyne products. The steric hindrance of alkyne moiety was found to be crucial in preventing the for- mation of diyne byproducts. This novel synthetic strategy was amenable to self- and cross-metathesis providing straightforward access to the corresponding symmetrical and dissymmetrical triynes with high selectivity. </p> </div> </div> </div> </div>

AbstractA concise and convergent stereoselective synthesis of curvulone B is described. The synthesis utilized a tandem isomerization followed by C–O and C–C bond-forming reactions following Mukaiyama-type aldol conditions for the construction of the trans-2,6-disubstituted dihydropyran ring system as the key steps. Other important features of this synthesis are a cross-metathesis, epimerization, and Friedel–Crafts acylation.
