Abstract

Tri-n- and -sec-butylchromium react with conjugated and non-conjugated dienes to give hydrogenation and isomerization products. The former arise by hydrogen transfer processes within the alkylchromium/diene complex. The latter are geometric and positional isomers of the starting dienes. The alkylchromium systems are thus excellent catalysts for the selective rearrangement of linear dienes.
