Stereoselective and chemoselective olefin cross metathesis can be viewed as a highly selective and efficient set of reactions that provide the same products as would selective CH activation and allylic oxidation (see scheme for an example). More active catalyst systems will provide an efficient process to functionalized products from readily available olefins. Cy=cyclohexyl.
