Abstract

Two ligand bridged binuclear titanium complexes Ti2(bppda)3(NMe2)2·3THF (1) and Ti2(bppda)3(NEt2)2·3THF (2) and one bis-ligand coordinated mononuclear complex Ti(bppda)2 (3) (ligand: H2bppdaN,N′-Bis(2-pyrrylmeth-ylidene)-1,2-phenylenediamine) were synthesized by adjusting the ratio of the starting materials and the reaction speed. The complexes were fully characterized with NMR, elemental analysis and X-ray crystal diffraction. The catalytic activity of the complex 1 to phenylacetylene hydroanilination reaction was also investigated.
