Ethenolysis
text:
In organic chemistry, ethenolysis is a chemical process in which internal olefins are degraded using ethylene (H2C=CH2) as the reagent. The reaction is an example of cross metathesis. The utility of the reaction is driven by the low cost of ethylene as a reagent and its selectivity. It produces compounds with terminal alkene functional groups (α-olefins), which are more amenable to other reactions such as polymerization and hydroformylation. The general reaction equation is: Ethenolysis is a for
