✦ Synopsis

The discovery' of the metal-catalysed disproportionation2 reaction of olefins (eq. 1) has evoked interest both because of the unique character of the reaction and because of its potential use in organic synthesis.

3 Furthermore it has been shown that the disproportionation of olefins may proceed with astonishing facility 4 despite the fact that in the absence of the metal the overall reaction represents a forbidden process according to the Woodward-Hoffmann rules governing concerted reactions.5 The role the metal plays is therefore clearly intriguing.

## Abstract A mechanism for ozone–olefin reactions is developed that is consistent with the recent findings of several investigations. These findings suggest a reaction sequence leading to the production of fewer free radical species than has been assumed in the past. Computer simulations using the
