The development of a new three-component chromatography-free reaction of isocyanides, amines and elemental sulfur allowed us the straightforward synthesis of thioureas in water. Considering a large pool of organic and inorganic bases, we first optimized the preparation of aqueous polysulfide solution from elemental sulfur. Using polysulfide solution, we were able to omit the otherwise mandatory chromatography, and to isolate the crystalline products directly from the reaction mixture by a simple filtration, retaining the sulfur in the solution phase. A wide range of thioureas synthesized in this way confirmed the reasonable substrate and functional group tolerance of our protocol.

A series of guanidinato-ligand-stabilised titanium complexes has been synthesised and characterised. These compounds can be prepared by carbodiimide insertion into titanium-amide bonds. Reaction of carbodiimides N,N′-bis(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)carbodiimide, N,N′-bis(2,6-dimethylphenyl)carbodiimide and N-tert-butyl-N′-(2,6-diisopropylphenyl)carbodiimide (2a-2c, respectively) with [(Et2N)TiCl3] led to mono(guanidinato)trichloridotitanium(IV) complexes (3a-3c). Subsequent conversion with methylmagnesium chloride gave the corresponding trimethyl complexes (4a and 4b). Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses were carried out for all complexes. Compound 4a showed very high activities in the polymerisation of ethylene in the presence of very high amounts of triethylaluminium and undergoes polymeryl chain transfer to aluminium. Irreversible coordinative chain-transfer polymerisation and a unique combination of catalyst economy and high activity were observed. In the presence of 1000 equivalents of aluminium, a chain elongation of 83.3 % could be achieved with an activity of 9900 kgPE molcat-1 h-1 bar-1. The influence of the steric demand of the ligand on the polymerisation capability is significant and was investigated too. A series of novel mono(guanidinato)titanium(IV) complexes has been synthesised and characterised. Single-crystal analyses were performed for all complexes. Compound 4a showed very high activities in the polymerisation of ethylene in the presence of very high amounts of aluminium after activation with fluorinated borates. Irreversible coordinative chain transfer to aluminium was observed.
