Organic Chemistry, Chapter 24, Problem 24.33P , additional homework tip  1

Concept Introduction:

Alkene metathesis:

An organometallic catalyzed reaction in which two alkenes exchange carbon atoms of their double bonds are said to be Alkene metathesis reaction.  Two alkenes are in same molecule and the product is a cycloalkene and ring closing occurs.  The catalyst used is Ru‑nucleophilic carbene complex.

Blurred answer
Students have asked these similar questions
True or False Considering that two carbon chains have equal number of carbons, but one has Fluorine and the other has Iodine, the one with iodine will have a higher boiling point. Mild oxidation of alkenes results to similar product as that of nucleophilic addition of water to aldehydes.
Draw the products expected from the addition of bromine to an alkene and to an alkyne.
Draw all of the possible alkene products from the following reaction. Indicate in what amounts alkenes would be produced relative to one another.
