Chapter 19, Problem 19.36P

Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The major organic product is to find out when the given reactant treated with the Grubbs catalyst.

Concept introduction:

The olefin metathesis connects two alkenes. The olefin metathesis reaction is catalyzed by a ruthenium compound. The alkene metathesis reactions generally take place under equilibrium conditions.

(c)

Interpretation:

The major organic product is to find out when the given reactant treated with the Grubbs catalyst.

Concept introduction:

The olefin metathesis connects two alkenes. The olefin metathesis reaction is catalyzed by a ruthenium compound. The alkene metathesis reactions generally take place under equilibrium conditions. This reaction is used to form a new ring from a compound containing two terminal $\text{C=C}$ bonds.
