Abstract

The metathesis of acyclic or cyclic olefinic sulfides is successfully achieved by using a chloroaryloxide neopentylidene complex of tungsten as catalyst. This reaction constitutes a new route to the synthesis of various olefins, dienes or unsaturated polymers containing one or more S atoms.
