Abstract

A convenient method for the bulk preparation of environmentally safe perfluoroalkyl propen- 1-yl ethers via isomerization of primary allyl ethers is presented. Herein the solvent-free isomerization was carried out in the presence of two ruthenium (II) complexes: the ruthenium- hydride [RuClH (CO)(PPh 3) 3] and the second generation Grubb's type catalyst dichloro [1, 3-bis-(2, 4, 6-trimethylphenyl)-4, 5-dimethylimidazol-2-ylidene](thien-2-ylmethylidene)( ...
