Abstractmagnified imageThe ruthenium‐catalysed enyne cross‐metathesis of several alkyne derivatives with terminal olefins was performed. These reactions were efficiently achieved under mild conditions in dimethyl carbonate, an eco‐friendly solvent. A unique one‐pot reaction based on an ethenolysis step followed by an enyne cross‐metathesis allowed the efficient transformation of renewable unsaturated fatty esters into valuable conjugated 1,3‐dienes of interest for further transformations.
