The inter- or intramolecular oxidative carboamination of alkynes catalyzed by [py<sub>2</sub>TiCl<sub>2</sub>NPh]<sub>2</sub> is reported. These multicomponent reactions couple alkenes, alkynes and diazenes to form either α,β-unsaturated imines or α-(iminomethyl)cyclopropanes via a Ti<sup>II</sup>/Ti<sup>IV</sup> redox cycle. Each of these products is formed from a common azatitanacyclohexene intermediate that undergoes either β-H elimination or α,γ-coupling, wherein the selectivity is under sub ...[more]
