Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: Product formed from ring closure metathesis is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Interchange of double bonds takes places when alkenes are treated with Grubbs catalyst. The metal atom in this catalyst is ruthenium and a mixture of products is formed in this reaction. When a diene is used as starting material, ring closure takes place.
