| Abstract: | Reaction of Ti(OCH2CH2OR)4 (R?CH3 and C2H5) with 8‐hydroxyquinoline in benzene at room temperature resulted in the formation of Ti(C9H6NO)2(OCH2CH2OR)2, characterized by IR, 1H‐NMR, UV and mass spectroscopies. The molecular structure of Ti(C9H6NO)2(OCH2CH2OCH3)2 has been determined by single‐crystal X‐ray structure analysis. The geometry at titanium is a distorted octahedron, with the nitrogen atoms of quinolinate occupying the trans position with respect to oxygens of the 2‐methoxyethoxy groups. The prepared quinolinate derivatives of titanium alkoxides are very stable towards hydrolysis and harsh conditions are required for hydrolytic cleavage. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
