Abstract
An efficient and selective isomerization of 1-alkenes to their corresponding 2-alkenes is achieved by using binary metal carbonyls such as Ru3(CO)12 as catalysts. Possible mechanisms are discussed. Substituents on the 1-alkene have a significant effect on the isomerization.
Graphical abstractSelective isomerization reactions of various 1-alkenes have been carried out using several metal carbonyl complexes. The most efficient catalyst studied was found to be trirutheniumdodecacarbonyl.Figure optionsDownload full-size imageDownload as PowerPoint slide
