Abstract
Various titanium carbene complexes are prepared by the reductive titanation of thioacetals, gem-dihalides, and related organosulfur and organohalogen compounds with the titanocene(II) reagent Cp(2)Ti[P(OEt)(3)](2). Alkylidene-, heteroatom-substituted methylidene-, 2-alkenylidene-, 2-alkynylidene-, and vinylidene-titanocenes thus formed are highly reactive toward organic compounds bearing a multiple bond and are employed for a variety of organic transformations such as carbonyl olefination and olefin metathesis.
