Cross-metathesis between ethane and toluene catalyzed by [( SiO)(2)TaH]: the first example of a cross-metathesis reaction between an alkane and an aromatic

The silica-supported tantalum hydride [(dropSiO)(2)TaH] 1 catalyzes at moderate temperature (150-250degreesC) the cross-metathesis reaction between toluene and ethane, to form mainly ethylbenzene and xylenes.
