Abstract

This paper described a practical synthetic approach for the cyclic butylene terephthalate trimer (7). The key step was a ring-closing metathesis, using Grubbs’ second-generation catalyst to form the macrocyclic ring. The advantages of this procedure included short reaction steps, simple operations and good yields.
