The catalytic ring-closing carbonyl-olefin metathesis (RCCOM) of <i>O</i>-allyl salicylaldehydes to form 2<i>H</i>-chromenes is described. The method utilizes a [2.2.1]-bicyclic hydrazine catalyst and operates via a [3+2]/retro-[3+2] metathesis manifold. The nature of the allyl substitution pattern was found to be crucial, with sterically demanding groups such as adamantylidene or diethylidene offering optimal outcomes. A survey of substrate scope is shown along with a discussion of mechanism su ...[more]
