The best catalyst to perform this reaction is the stable binuclear [Ru(02CH)(C0)2-(PPh3)]2 complex, which makes possible the transformation of bulky alcohols such as steroid derivatives with retention of configuration at the propargylic carbon atom [57], and the preparation of y3-oxopropyl esters from propargylic alcohols as well as y-oxobutyl esters from butynol (Scheme 8.16) [56].

When simple saturated substrates are exposed to heat in the absence of oxygen, predictable pattern of compounds such as hydrocarbons, free fatty acids or symmetric ketones are produced. The specific thermolytic products depend on the chain length of the parent fatty acid in the TAG molecule. A simple TAG produces ( =number of carbons in the fatty acid moiety) a series of normal alkanes and 1-alkenes with the C j alkane predominating a fatty acid, a symmetric ketone a oxopropyl ester propene and propanediol diesters and diacylglycerols. In addition, acrolein, carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide are also formed (Nawar, 1985).
