Abstract Novel findings concerning the mechanism of enyne metathesis reactions involving rearrangement are presented. It has been demonstrated that the presence of either oxygen or nitrogen at the propargylic position leads to opposite regioselectivities in the presence of a cross‐metathesis partner. The application of these reactions to domino processes is also described.
