8-Allylcoumarins are conveniently accessible through a microwave-promoted tandem Claisen rearrangement/Wittig olefination/cyclization sequence. They serve as a versatile platform for the annellation of five- to seven-membered rings using ring-closing olefin metathesis (RCM). Furano-, pyrano-, oxepino- and azepinocoumarins were synthesized from the same set of precursors using Ru-catalyzed double bond isomerizations and RCM in a defined order. One class of products, pyrano[2,3-f]chromene-2,8-diones, were inaccessible through direct RCM of an acrylate, but became available from the analogous allyl ether via an assisted tandem catalytic RCM/allylic oxidation sequence.

Three types of pyrazole-fused heterobicycles, i.e., 1,5-, 1,7-, and 2,5-dihydropyrano[3,2-c]pyrazoles, were synthesized from 4-allyloxy-1H-pyrazoles. A sequence of the Claisen rearrangement of 4-allyloxy-1H-pyrazoles, ruthenium-hydride-catalyzed double bond migration, O-allylation, and ring-closing metathesis was employed in this study.

Application of the intramolecular asymmetric Heck reaction in the desymmetrization of a novel class of symmetrical bicyclodienes, synthesized through a diastereoselective double ring-closing metathesis (DSRCM) reaction, was achieved with good yields (approximately 80%) and excellent enantioselectivities (up to 99% ee). Three contiguous stereocenters are established in a single desymmetrization reaction. The use of thallium carbonate as base in the asymmetric Heck reaction favours double bond migration in 13. Cationic conditions delivered products with good to excellent enantioselectivities, surpassing the results under neutral conditions.Key words: asymmetric, Heck, polycycles, metathesis, stereoselective, desymmetrization.

The review reports on transformations of unsaturated terpenes and terpenoids via olefin metathesis processes including ring closing metathesis of dienes, cross metathesis with functional olefins and ethenolysis, and ring opening metathesis as well as ring opening/cross metathesis.

Tandem sequences consisting of an olefin metathesis step and a subsequent non-metathesis reaction become accessible by organometallic transformations of the Ru-carbene species in situ. This contribution highlights some tandem sequences that rely on the conversion of the metathesis catalyst to Ru-hydrides, with special emphasis on the tandem ring-closing metathesis (RCM)-double-bond isomerization sequence.

Reaction of the Grubbs catalyst RuCl2(PCy3)2(CHPh) (1) with lithium 2-[(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)imino]pyrrolide·Et2O (LiNN′·Et2O) gives alkylidene complex 5, containing a chelating, σ-bound iminopyrrolato unit. The structure of 5 is confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Treatment of 5 with pyridine generates RuCl(NN′)(py)2(CHPh) (6) via displacement of PCy3. Complex 5 effects ring-closing metathesis in air, displaying high reactivity relative to 6.Key words: ruthenium, alkylidene, metathesis, pyrrolimine, iminopyrrolato.

A concise total synthesis of (±)-mesembrine has been successfully accomplished in seven steps and 24% overall yield from commercially available 3-ethoxy-2-cyclohexen-1-one. Central to the assembly of the skeleton of mesembrine are a Johnson–Claisen rearrangement for the formation of the benzylic quaternary stereocenter and direct allylic oxidation to generate the substrate for the amidation/transannular aza-conjugate addition reaction.
