## Abstract The four‐coordinate ruthenium phosphonium alkylidenes **1‐Cy** and **1‐__i__Pr**, differing in the substituent on the phosphorus center, were observed to decompose thermally in the presence of 1,1‐dichloroethylene to produce [H~3~CPR~3~][Cl]. The major ruthenium‐containing product was a

## Abstract Ruthenium olefin metathesis catalysts have been evaluated for the ethenolysis of methyl oleate, a natural seed oil derivative, to produce useful terminal olefins. Several __N__‐heterocyclic carbene‐based ruthenium catalysts demonstrate good activity and selectivity for the formation of
