Reductive coupling of aldehydes, ketones and aroyl chlorides induced by lvt prepared from TiCl4/Al system

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919808004438

Aluminium powder has been used to reduce titanium tetrachloride to generate the low valent titanium (LVT)reagent which can induce the reductive coupling of aldehydes and ketones to form the corresponding pinacols or olefins. However, arylsulfonyl chlorides will give diaryldisulfides under the same condition.
