Titanium complexes of the type [(OPr i )4-nTi(OC2H4OR)n], [(acac)2Ti(O-G-O] and [(acac)2Ti(OPr i )(OCH2CH2SH)] were synthesized from stoichiometric reactions between titanium tetraisopropoxide [(Ti(OPri)4, TPT] and alkoxyalkanols {HOCH2CH2OR} in 1:1 to 1:4 molar ratios, where R = Et and n-Bu and by the interaction of the precursor [(acac)2Ti(OR)2] with different diols and thiol in 1:1 molar ratio, where G = (CH2)2, (CH2)5 and C(CH3)2CH2CH(CH3), R = isoprop. The reactions have been carried out in refluxing benzene under anhydrous conditions to yield mononuclear derivatives. All these compounds were purified by distillation under reduced pressure. On the basis of elemental analysis, IR and NMR ( 1 H and 13 C) spectral studies tetrahedral as well as a cis octahedral geometry around Ti(IV) is proposed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
