71% yield, presumably through the intermediacy of ruthenium carbene
with the
extrusion of cyclopentene. It is worth noting that the corresponding E -epoxy-alkene
failed to give the desired metathesis product
105
, and only a complex mixture of
oligomeric by-products was formed. These results suggested that the Z configuration
of the epoxy-alkene was essential for a fast reaction rate in the first ring-closing
metathesis step (Scheme 5.28) [53].
In the total synthesis of (

against mammalian V-ATPases, Trauner and coworkers implemented a related

underwent ring-closing
metathesis to afford the macrocyclic core of archazolid B in 27% yield. The
successful execution of this daring ring-closing event by means of alkene
metathesis in the presence of multiple sites of olefinic moieties was noteworthy
(Scheme 5.29) [54].
Lee and Cho further expanded the concept of relay metathesis and developed an
ingenious tandem strategy by combining with a metallotropic [1,3]-shift and cross-
metathesis
