Titanium Complexes as Catalysts for the Intermolecular Hydroamination of Alkynes

Abstract

Several titanium complexes can be used as active catalysts for the intermolecular hydroamination of alkynes. The investigated catalysts include various titanocene complexes as well as titanium compounds bearing amido- and chloro-ligands. The activities of the investigated catalysts are compared in two representative hydroamination/reduction sequences.
