The preparation of [Cp 2 Ti IV (b-diketonato)] + ClO 4 À involves the reaction of Cp 2 TiCl 2 with AgClO 4 and the respective b-diketones. The crystal structures show that the structures are isomorphous. All the complexes exhibit p-stacking between one Cp ring and the aromatic R-group ring, i.e. the C 6 H 5 , C 4 H 3 S and C 4 H 3 O fragments, respectively. The DFT calculations show that the formal 16-electron count of these d 0 titanium(IV) complexes is increased via Ti O p bonding.

The crystal structure exhibits intermolecular CH interactions.

The structures show the former to haVe an unusual nido eight-atom cluster shape with a low electron count and the latter to haVe the expected bicapped-octahedral geometry.

The benzopyrans react with Al(OTf)3/acetic anhydride in ring-opening reactions in the absence or presence of acetic acid to selectively produce chiral chromenes or chromans, respectively, in high yields.
