Abstract
We report well-defined Ti(III) metallocene complexes Cp*2TiMe (1Me) and Cp*2TiH (1H) (Cp* = η5-C5Me5) as the first isolable early transition metal precatalysts for the dehydropolymerization of amine-boranes RNH2·BH3. These earth-abundant metal catalysts combine high activity with broad substrate scope. In contrast to late transition metal catalysts, 1Me displays reactivity toward a variety of primary amine-boranes, including those containing reactive moieties such as olefinic groups. The ability to functionalize the side chain of the resultant polyaminoborane [RNH-BH2]n provides a promising method for controlling properties. Mechanistic investigation of the dehydrogenation of secondary amine-borane Me2NH·BH3 supports a bond-metathesis/β-hydride elimination, redox-neutral mechanism with a Ti(III)-H resting state.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
