Anomalous role of molecular sieves 4A in the preparation of a binaphthol-derived active μ3-oxo titanium catalyst

Abstract
The active species of binaphthol-derived titanium catalyst 1, which is used as an efficient catalyst for glyoxylate–ene reactions, is primarily composed of a µ 3 -oxo (Ti 3 O) species, for which the molecular sieves 4A employed in the catalyst preparation act as a H 2 O donor.
