25. Under standardised RCM conditions (substrate 5e, 2 mol% catalyst, refluxing DCM, 22 hours), the following results were otained: 14% yield for 6e with catalyst 1, 40% yield for 6e with catalyst 2, 100% yield for 6e with catalyst 3. The data presented in Table 1 are all optimised (catalyst loading, solvent, temperature) for catalysts 1, 2 and 3. It should be noted that the reaction times and catalyst loading were more often not optimised for the Mo-catalyst 4 as these reactions are performed in a glove box and difficult to monitor over time as the catalyst is sensitive to air and moisture.
