Solutions of low-valence titanium chloride (titanium dichloride) are prepared in situ by reduction of solutions of titanium trichloride in tetrahydrofuran or 1,2-dimethoxyethane with lithium aluminum hydride [204, 205], with lithium or potassium [206], with magnesium [207, 208] or with a zinc-copper couple [209,210]. Such solutions effect hydrogenolysis of halogens [208], deoxygenation of epoxides [204] and reduction of aldehydes and ketones to alkenes [205,... 

A fairly efficient synthesis of 1-chloro-l-fluorocyclopropanes under mild conditions is based on the reduction of trichlorofluoromethane by a zerovalent titanium species in the presence of an alkene (Table 6). The metal is formed in the reaction system from titaniura(IV) chloride and lithium aluminum hydride. ...
