3 Metathesis - Introduction As applied to alkenes, refers to the transposition of the alkene carbon atoms so that two new alkenes are formed Dates back to 1955 Very popular means of making C=C bonds A. W. Anderson and N. G. Merckling, U. S. U.S. Patent 2,721,189 (October 18, 1955)U.S. Patent 2,721,189

5 Metathesis - 2005 Nobel Prize in Chemistry To Pierre Chauvin, Robert Grubbs and Richard Schrock for “the development of the metathesis method in organic synthesis”
6
6 Ring Opening Metathesis Polymerizations (ROMP) Thermodynamically favoured for smaller rings Especially favoured for bridged systems
7
7 Acyclic Diene Metathesis (ADMET) Used to polmerize certain terminal dienes to polyenes Double bond formed can be E or Z Grubbs, R. H., et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2006, 128, 15358-15359
8
8 Ring Closing Metathesis (RCM) Reaction is driven by the loss of ethylene Permits access of ring sizes that otherwise may be typically hard to make However if thermodynamically unfavourable polymerization may occur Nicolaou, K. C.., et al. Chem. Comm. 2006, 600-602

18 Metathesis - Cope Rearrangement Applied to the synthesis of +/- Asteriscanolide 9 step synthesis with the key step involving a tandem metathesis/Cope Rearrangement Had previously done a similar transformation, but not in tandem Snapper, M. L., et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 8071-8072 Snapper, M. L., et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1997, 119, 1478-1479

20 Metathesis - Cope Rearrangement Snapper, M. L., et al. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2000, 122, 8071-8072 Key is a tandem reaction Cope occurs under relatively mild conditions Reason this occurs due to the absence of an alkyl group
