INFLUÊNCIA DO IMPEDIMENTO ESTÉRICO DE LIGANTES ANCILARES EM COMPLEXOS A BASE DE Ru APLICADOS EM METÁTESES DO ÁLCOOL E ACETATO CINAMÍLICOS

Cinnamyl alcohol (AC) and cinnamyl acetate (ACM) were used as substrates in olefin metathesis reactions catalyzed by RuCl2(PCy3)2(=CHPh), first-generation Grubbs catalyst-G1, and RuCl2(PCy3)(H2IMes)(= CHPh), second-generation Grubbs catalyst-G2. The reactions occurred in the same reaction conditions for both substrates, 50 °C, for 24 h, in the proportions Ru:substrate of 1:1 and 1:10 mol. At the end of each experiment, the reaction mixture was evaluated by GC-MS and NMR of 13C{1H}. The results revealed different products when G1 and G2 are applied in the metathesis of AC, 1,5-diphenyl-2-pente...
