Carbosilane metallodendrimers of the first and second generation containing 4, 8 or 16 titanocene dichloride endgroups were prepared by the normal hydrosilylation method. Different chain lengths of the carbon spacer between the dendrimer and the Cp linkage were investigated. Computer atomistic models of the second generation metallodendrimers with the length of carbon spacer n = 1, 3 and 5 carbon atoms were created, parametrized, and consequently simulated in THF solvent using molecular dynamics. It was shown that the dendrimers with the longest spacers are the most accessible for reagents, that there is no significant backfolding in those structures and that dynamic Ti-Ti distances are so large, that independent behavior of metallocene parts may be expected. Dendrimers of the second generation with 8 and 16 end groups and the five carbon spacer were used in the catalytic system with manganese metal to efficiently catalyze allylic coupling reactions with low catalyst loadings.
