The reactions of the titanium alkoxide [Ti(OR)4] (R = Me, nPr, iPr, tBu) with the acids 2,2’-Ph2C(X)(CO2H), where X = OH and NH2, i.e., benzilic acid (2,2’-diphenylglycolic acid, L1H2), and 2,2’-diphenylglycine (L2H3), have been investigated. The var... Read More about Ring Opening Polymerization of Lactides and Lactones by Multimetallic Titanium Complexes Derived from the Acids Ph2C(X)CO2H (X = OH, NH2).

Reaction of benzilic acid, Ph2C(OH)(CO2H), L1H2, with equimolar amounts of M(OR)5 (M = Nb, Ta) led, following work-up, to the tetranuclear complexes [Nb4(OEt)8(L1)4(μ-O)2] (1) or [Ta4(OEt)8(L1)4(μ-O)2]·0.5MeCN (2·0.5MeCN), respectively. Similar use o... Read More about Niobium and Tantalum complexes derived from the acids Ph<inf>2</inf>C(X)CO<inf>2</inf>H (X = OH, NH<inf>2</inf>): synthesis, structure and ROP capability.
