title: Reactions of Titanium Hydrazides with Silanes and Boranes: N-N Bond Cleavage and N Atom Functionalization.
abstract: Reaction of Ti(N2(iPr)N)(NNPh2)(py) with Ph(R)SiH2 (R = H, Ph) or 9-BBN gave reductive cleavage of the N(α)-N(β) bond and formation of new silyl- or boryl-amido ligands. The corresponding reactions of Cp*Ti{MeC(N(i)Pr)2}(NNR2) (R = Me or Ph) with HBPin or 9-BBN gave borylhydrazido-hydride or borylimido products, respectively. N(α) and N(β) atom transfer and dehydrogenative coupling reactions are also reported.
