- Our detailed compoutational study of the titanium(III)-catalyzed coupling between ketones and nitriles has been published in Dalton Trans. The results give valuable insight into the mechanism of such reductive couplings involving low-valent titanium species and show that equilibria between neutral and cationic catalyst intermediates play an important role here.
