✦ Synopsis


␣,-Vinyl-terminated butadiene oligomers can be generated through the cross-metathesis of ethylene and high molecular weight 1,4-polybutadiene catalyzed by the complex RuCl 2 (ACHPh)(PCy 3 ) 2 . The effect of varied ethylene pressure is studied in order to obtain the highest conversion to the monomer 1,5-hexadiene. A dramatic increase in yield of this monomeric diene is realized relative to previous published attempts utilizing a well-defined group VI metal alkylidene in the same chemistry. Traces of side products are observed, and alternate mechanisms for their formation were proposed.

## Abstract ADMET depolymerization is a viable route in the formation of tailored‐molecular‐weight polybutadiene telechelics. The bulk depolymerization requirement is met by initially forming macrocyclic butadiene, thereby decreasing the amount of macrocyclic formation. This synthetic scheme is cap
