Abstract

High conversion and selectivity can be obtained for the cross-metathesis of 2-butene with triglycerides and unsaturated fatty acid esters derived from natural oils. This can be achieved with remarkably high productive catalyst turnovers using second-generation ruthenium-based olefin metathesis catalysts.
