Abstract
The new bidentate Ti catalyst, (anthraquinone-1,8-dioxy)bis(triisoprop oxy- titanium) (1) can be successfully designed and utilized for the s imultaneous coordination to carbonyl substrates. The high double-activ ation ability of the bidentate Ti catalyst I toward carbonyls is empha sized using several synthetic examples in comparison with the correspo nding monodentate Ti catalyst. The intermediary coordination complex f ormation of bidentate 1 with DMF or epoxycyclohexane as a carbonyl or epoxy substrate is characterized by C-13 NMR spectroscopy.
