Pinacol Coupling of Aromatic Aldehydes and Ketones in Ethyl Acetate Mediated by TiCl4‐Mg

Titanium tetrachloride in ethyl acetate can be reduced by Mg powder to the corresponding low‐valent titanium complexes, which can reduce some aromatic aldehydes and ketones to the corresponding pinacols in 38–85% yields within 15–60 min at rt with stirring.     

A Supramolecular Chiral Auxiliary Approach: “Remote Control” of Stereochemistry at a Hierarchically Assembled Dimeric Helicate

Dimeric hierarchically‐assembled titanium(IV) helicates are in solvent‐dependent equilibrium with the corresponding monomers. Statistically formed mixtures of such complexes bearing chiral stereocontrolling ligands and achiral diene‐substituted ligands show high diastereoselectivity and reasonable enantioselectivity in the Diels–Alder reaction with maleimides if the reaction proceeds with the dimer but not with the monomer. Thus, solvent dependent switching between the monomer and dimer enables on/off switching of the enantioselectivity.     

Coordinatively Unsaturated Amidotitanocene Cations with Inverted σ and π Bond Strengths: Controlled Release of Aminyl Radicals and Hydrogenation/Dehydrogenation Catalysis

Cationic amidotitanocene complexes [Cp₂Ti(NPhAr)][B(C₆F₅)₄] (Cp=η⁵-C₅H₅; Ar=phenyl ( 1 a ), p-tolyl ( 1 b ), p-anisyl ( 1 c )) were isolated. The bonding situation was studied by DFT (Density Functional Theory) using EDA-NOCV (Energy Decomposition Analysis with Natural Orbitals for Chemical Valence). The polar Ti−N bond in 1 a–c features an unusual inversion of σ and π bond strengths responsible for the balance between stability and reactivity in these coordinatively unsaturated species. In solution, 1 a–c undergo photolytic Ti−N cleavage to release Ti(III) species and aminyl radicals ⋅ NPhAr. Reaction of 1 b with H₃BNHMe₂ results in fast homolytic Ti−N cleavage to give [Cp₂Ti(H₃BNHMe₂)][B(C₆F₅)₄] ( 3 ). 1 a–c are highly active precatalysts in olefin hydrogenation and silanes/amines cross-dehydrogenative coupling, whilst 3 efficiently catalyzes amine-borane dehydrogenation. The mechanism of olefin hydrogenation was studied by DFT and the cooperative H₂ activation key step was disclosed using the Activation Strain Model (ASM).     

Studies on the Thermodynamic and Kinetic Properties of the Reactions of Ti+ with Sulfur Transfer Reagent SCO Along the C═S Bond Activation Branch at 200–1200K

Theoretical studies on the thermodynamic and kinetic properties of the reactions of Ti⁺ with sulfur transfer reagent SCO via the C═S bond activation pathway have been carried on using DFT/B3LYP method, general statistical thermodynamics, and Eyring transition state theory with Wigner correction. The relevant reactions include reaction 1 ⁴ Ti⁺+¹SCO → ⁴ IM ₁ → ⁴ TS ₁ → ⁴ IM ₂ → ⁴ TiS⁺+ ¹ CO, and reaction 2 ⁴Ti⁺+¹SCO →⁴IM₁→ CP →²IM₂→²TiS⁺+¹CO in which the spin multiplicity changes from the quartet state to the doublet state in the crossing region. It is concluded that the increase of the temperature is favored to the reaction 1 process, since the equilibrium constants (K) rises from 0.566 × 10[P]-9 at 200 K to 0.109 × 10⁰ at 1200 K, and the reaction rate constant (k) from 0.222 × 10⁰ s[P]-1 at 200 K to 0.540 × 10 ¹¹ s[P]-1 at 1200 K. Moreover, reaction 1 is endothermic, and non-spontaneous in the way the entropy increases, while reaction 2 is exothermic and spontaneous in the way their entropy decreases. The reaction path 2 is the energetically favorable channel, and its thermodynamic data change not largely with the rise of temperature.     

钛表面生物活性榍石/氧化钛复合涂层的结构和磷灰石形成机理

采用微弧氧化和热处理复合技术,在钛表面制备了具有双层结构的榍石/氧化钛复合涂层。榍石/氧化钛复合涂层的外层是由微弧氧化涂层经热处理后晶化生成;而内层是由钛基底的氧化生成,并且氧化钛表现出不同的Ti,O原子比。由于钛基底的氧化,孔径在50~500nm的微孔呈层状结构分布在涂层内层。与微弧氧化涂层相比,该复合涂层具有很好的磷灰石诱导能力,这是由于榍石沿着特定晶面和晶向与羟基磷灰石表现出良好的晶体学匹配关系,从而为磷灰石的成核和取向沉积过程提供良好的位点。
