15. Critical monomer concentration is another variable. As small molecule synthetic chemists, we make the generalization that lower strain alkenes can be employed in the ring synthesis at higher concentrations without triggering self-ROMP. On the other hand, with strained cycloalkenes, a much lower alkene concentration range must be observed otherwise self-ROMP will become competitive.

21. The rate law for cycloalkene-alkyne cross-metathesis has not yet been determined. Since cyclopentene is nominally reactive, we liken it to 1-hexene and make the tentative comparison to the mechanism determined by kinetic analysis.
22. Another possibility is that of diminished reactivity for carbene H due to chelation by the ketone. We considered this unlikely given the results below where the reaction proceeds exclusively through the gem-dimethyl version of carbene H.
