The most favorable pathway of ethenolysis of cis-2-butene with catalyst 5. Gibbs free energies and enthalpies (in parenthesis) are in kcal/mol and with respect to the most stable ruthenium ethylidene complex 47 (an isomer of 27, see Figure 4). For clarity, the chelating adamantyl group is not shown in the 3D transition state structures.
