Catalysis via Homolytic Substitutions with C-O and Ti-O Bonds: Oxidative Additions and Reductive Eliminations in Single Electron Steps.

In a combined theoretical and experimental study, an efficient catalytic reaction featuring epoxide opening and tetrahydrofuran formation through homolytic substitution reactions at C-O and Ti-O bonds was devised. The performance of these two key steps of the catalytic cycle was studied and could be...
