␣,-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

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 capable of generating well‐defined, tailored‐molecular‐weight polybutadiene telechelics (M̄~n~ = 2600).
