Article Abstract
Ti(IV) and Ti(III) complexes using the PCP ligand have been synthesized (PCP = CH-2,6-(CHPBu)). The [PCP]Li synthon can be reacted with TiCl(THF) to form (PCP)TiCl () in limited yields due to significant reduction of the titanium synthon. The Ti(III) complex (PCP)TiCl () has been further characterized. This can have half an equivalent of halide abstracted to form [{(PCP)TiCl}{μ-Cl}][B(CF)] () and can also be methylated, forming (PCP)TiMe (). All the Ti(III) complexes have been characterized using EPR and X-ray crystallography, giving insight into their electronic structures, which are further supported by DFT calculations.

Using an Earth-abundant transition metal to mediate formation and splitting of C-C σ-bonds, in response to electrical stimuli, constitutes a promising strategy to construct complex organic skeletons. Here, we showcase how [ BuN][N] reacts with an isocyanide adduct of a tetrahedral and high-spin Ti complex, [(Tp )TiCl] (1), to enact N-atom transfer, C-N bond formation, and C-C coupling, to form a dinuclear complex, [(Tp )Ti{AdN(N)C-C(N)NAd}Ti(Tp )] (3), with two Ti ions bridged by a disubstituted oxalimidamide ligand ( Bu = -butyl, Tp = hydrotris(3--butyl-5-methylpyrazol-1-yl)borate, Ad = 1-adamantyl). Magnetic and computational studies reveal two magnetically isolated d Ti ions, and electrochemical studies unravel a reversible two-electron oxidation at -0.

Carbon dioxide capture and functionalization sequesters carbon dioxide in more robust products and offers a viable route to reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We present herein a unique molecular Ti oxo anion that reversibly binds CO to allow both its sequestration and functionalization.

Heteroanionic materials such as oxynitrides offer a unique platform for tailoring electronic and structural properties. In this work, titanium dioxide (TiO) was heated under ammonia (NH) gas to create titanium oxynitride (TiON) compounds. A combination of the indophenol blue method and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to quantitatively determine the composition of the bulk powder.

We describe the identification of an active Ti(salen) catalyst for the radical arylation of epoxides by a cyclic voltammetry study of mechanism-based predictors, such as the redox potentials of the complexes and their EC-equilibria, for the success of catalysis. Surprisingly, by far the most active catalyst features an uncommon tetrasubstituted ligand backbone, which renders chloride binding to the active Ti(III) species less favorable, thereby increasing catalyst activity due to improved substrate binding. Catalysis is most efficient in the "green" solvent ethyl acetate and can be initiated using base metals as well as electrochemical methods for the reduction of the Ti(salen)-precatalyst.

Regioselective hydroaminoalkylation of alkenes via α-C-H bond activation of alkylamines is an efficient process for the preparation of complex alkylamines minimizing stoichiometric waste. Herein, we report that a combination of Cp*TiMe and AlMe catalyzes the branch-selective hydroaminoalkylation of 1-alkenes, including styrene derivatives and 1,3-dienes, with -methylaniline derivatives. Kinetic studies reveal that the active species are generated from generated Cp*TiMe(NMePh) and alkylaluminum.
