Abstract
The reactivity of cycloolefins (cyclopentene, cycloheptene, cyclooctene, cyclononene, and cyclodecene) in a cometathesis reaction with 1-hexene performed with the use of the MoCl5/SiO2–SnMe4 catalytic system was determined over a wide range of conversions at temperatures of 25 and 5°C. It was shown that the reactivity decreased with the size of a cycloolefin ring. The addition of triphenylphosphine to the reaction mixture led to a decrease in the weight of cometathesis products with respect to the homometathesis product 5-decene. A possible mechanism was proposed to explain the behaviors observed.
