When certain cycloalkenes are used in metathesis reactions, ringopening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) occurs to form a highmolecular- weight polymer, as shown with cyclopentene as the starting material. The reaction is driven to completion by relief of strain in the cycloalkene.What products are formed by ring-opening metathesis polymerization of each alkene?
Which of the following molecules can be used as a monomer to generate this polymer?
So the answer's B... im having quite the trouble
understanding where in the polymer the
double bond broke. Could someone explain
