Hierarchical helicates based on ketone-substituted titanium(IV)triscatecholates show different monomer-dimer behavior depending on different solvents. The dimerization constants of a whole series of differently alkyl-substituted complexes is analyzed to show that the solvent has a very strong influence on the dimerization. Hereby, effects like solvophobicity/philicity, sterics, electronics of the substituents and weak side-chain—side-chain interactions seem to act in concert.
Exploring the Reactivity of α-Lithiated Aryl Benzyl Ethers: Inhibition of the [1,2]-Wittig Rearrangement and the Mechanistic Proposal Revisited

By carefully controlling the reaction temperature, treatment of aryl benzyl ethers with tBuLi selectively leads to α-lithiation, generating stable organolithiums that can be directly trapped with a variety of selected electrophiles, before they can undergo the expected [1,2]-Wittig rearrangement. This rearrangement has been deeply studied, both experimentally and computationally, with aryl α-lithiated benzyl ethers bearing different substituents at the aryl ring. The obtained results support the competence of a concerted anionic intramolecular addition/elimination sequence and a radical dissociation/recombination sequence for explaining the tendency of migration for aryl groups. The more favored rearrangements are found for substrates with electron-poor aryl groups that favor the anionic pathway.
