Metathesis reactions can be carried out with two different alkene substrates in one reaction mixture. Depending on the substitution pattern around the C=C, the reaction may lead to one major product or a mixture of many products. For each pair of alkene substrates, draw all metathesis products formed. (Disregard any starting materials that may also be present at equilibrium.) With reference to the three examples, discuss when alkene metathesis with two different alkenes is a synthetically useful reaction.

In addition to organic halides, alkyl tosylates (R'OTs, Section 9.13) also react with organocuprates ( ) to form coupling products R-R'. When 2° alkyl tosylates are used as starting materials ( ), inversion of the configuration at a stereogenic center results. Keeping this in mind, draw the product formed when each compound is treated with .
