This chapter covers developments on titanium-containing complexes as homogeneous catalysts for nonasymmetric transformations since 2010. Titanium complexes show high catalytic activity and broad applications in organic synthesis. The chapter gives an overview of titanium-catalysed processes in organic synthesis and is organised by the catalytic process and subdivided by type of reaction. The focus will be on reactions involving carbon–carbon (crosscoupling, hydroaminoalkylation, Barbier-type and oligomerisation reactions) and carbon–heteroatom (hydroamination, cyclisation, hetero-Diels–Alder and multicomponent reactions) bond-forming reactions, reduction and oxidation reactions.
