Abstract
The first two examples of the successful application of chiral salen ligand s for diastereoselective syntheses of dinuclear Ti(IV), ((LTi)-Ti-1)(2)O-2 and ((PdI2LTi)-Ti-2)(2)O-2 species with defined chirality and geometry at t he metal centre are presented. The structure of the complexes was establish ed by X-ray structural analysis. Both complexes have similar structural fea tures: (1) chiral salen ligands have cis-beta configuration around Ti centr es, (2) (R,R) chirality of ligands induces Delta helicity of ligand, and (3 ) syn arrangement of ligand donor atoms in relation to the TiO2Ti plane. St ereoselective effects of the dimers are discussed engaging available litera ture data. A model has been proposed to rationalise high syn selectivity in the formation of dimers.
