Abstract

The use of the air-stable complexes tetrachlorobis (μ-methoxy) bis (methanolo) dimethoxyditungsten (1) and tetrachlorobis (μ-ethoxy) tetraethoxyditungsten (2) as catalyst precursors for the metathesis of 1-octene is described. Using mild conditions, the latter was converted to 7-tetradecene (4) in fair yields when diethylaluminum chloride (3) was used as a cocatalyst. Product stereoselectivity was 4/1 in favor of the trans isomer. The reaction ...
