- 14Generation of the internal metallacyclopropene int-1 is crucial for titanium alkoxide mediated CC bond formation; see

- 14bF. Sato, H. Urabe, S. Okamoto, Chem. Rev. 2000, 100, 2835–2886. Attempted generation of metallacyclopropene of terminal alkyne has been reported to be unsuccessful:
- 14cK. Harada, H. Urabe, F. Sato, Tetrahedron Lett. 1995, 36, 3203–3206. Our control experiment attempting generation of titanium–acetylene complex on 6 c was not successful; see the Supporting Information.
- 15The regioselectivity observed was influenced significantly by the structure of the terminal alkyne. For additional control experiments, see the Supporting Information.
- 16T. Hamada, D. Suzuki, H. Urabe, F. Sato, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1999, 121, 7342–7344. CC formation at C2 of the terminal alkyne would affored more strained transition intermediate.
- 17Allene product generation was also observed in the titanium-mediated reductive coupling of propargylic ethers and carbonyl compounds; see
