Popis: | The identity of the major product of Ru-catalysed alkene metathesis of two polyene substrates has been determined using density functional theory (DFT) NMR prediction, a1H–1H Total Correlated Spectroscopy (TOCSY) NMR experiment and ultimately by single-crystal X-ray crystallography. The substrates were designed as those that would potentially allow expedient access to thetrans-decalin skeleton of the natural product (−)-euonyminol, but the product was found to be a bis-cyclopentenyl-β-cyanohydrin [1-(1-hydroxycyclopent-3-en-1-yl)cyclopent-3-ene-1-carbonitrile, C11H13NO] rather than thetrans-2,3,6,7-dehydrodecalin-β-cyanohydrin. |
