Synthesis of 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyrans
Recent Literature
An olefin metathesis/double bond migration sequence of allyl ethers to cyclic
enol ethers is catalyzed by first and second generation Grubbs' catalysts. These
ruthenium carbene complexes were activated to catalyze the double bond migration
by additioin of hydride sources, such as NaH or NaBH4.
