23. A and B symbolize cross-metathesized double bonds; C symbolizes terminal double bonds and D stands for internal olefins. However and especially in cases of incomplete conversion towards dodeca-2,10-dienedioate, a broad spectrum of possible molecules featuring these structural elements is expectable. For example, C might stem from the starting material, from mono cross-metathesized molecules or from oligomers (originating from ADMET of 1,10-decadiene). Internal olefins (D) stem from oligomeric products such as octadeca-1,9,17-triene or higher oligomers as well as from telechelic and semi-telechelic oligomers bearing eneoate as the endgroup. No evidence for cyclooctene could be retrieved, but formation of higher cyclic structures from 1,10-decadiene could not be ruled.

27. It is worth noting that no evidence for the isomerization of the olefin could be found although such isomerization at higher temperatures has been reported; see P.A. Fokou, and M.A.R. Meier Macromol. Rapid Commun. 31 2010 368 373 and references therein
28. This might be best explained by the assumption, that excessive ethyl acrylate acts similarly than bezoquinones which were used for the suppression of isomerization; see S.H. Hong, D.P. Sanders, C.W. Lee, and R.H. Grubbs J. Am. Chem. Soc. 127 2005 17160 17161
