  • Process for the preparation of dimethyl titanocene
    Patent number: 5892082
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for the preparation of the reagent dimethyl titanocene (Cp.sub.2 Ti(CH.sub.3).sub.2) from titanocene dichloride (Cp.sub.2 TiCl.sub.2) and a methyl magnesium halide, in particular, methyl magnesium chloride (CH.sub.3 MgCl). The instant process provides the desired reagent in a manner which is generally less hazardous and more economical than previous methods.
