Abstract
The catalyst generated in situ using CoCl2/Ph3P/NaBH4 in 1/3/1 ratio in THF at -10°C isomerizes 1-decene into predominantly cis-2-decene or trans-2-decene. Allyl benzene and safrole have been converted into the corresponding β-methylstyrenes. The catalyst also isomerizes cis,cis-1,5-cyclooctadiene to cis,cis-1,3-cyclooctadiene. © 1987.
