TITANIUM TETRACHLORIDE BIS(TETRAHYDROFURAN) COMPLEX - Introduction
Titanium(IV) chloride tetrahydrofuran complex is an organometallic compound having the formula TiCl4.4THF. Its properties are as follows:
1. appearance: colorless to light yellow liquid.
2. Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran (THF).
3. stability: relatively stable in the air, but will react with water to generate hydrochloric acid and titanium dioxide.
The main uses of Titanium(IV) chloride tetrahydrofuran complex are as follows:
1. catalyst: it is commonly used as a Lewis acid catalyst in organic synthesis to participate in esterification, aldehyde condensation, substitution reactions, etc.
2. electronic materials: can be used for the preparation of bismuth titanate (Bi4Ti3O12) and other electronic materials precursor.
A common method for preparing Titanium(IV) chloride tetrahydrofuran complex is to react metallic titanium with chlorine to form titanium (IV) chloride, and then react with tetrahydrofuran to form a complex.
Regarding the safety information of this compound, the following matters need to be noted:
1. toxicity: Titanium(IV) chloride tetrahydrofuran complex has a certain toxicity, should avoid direct contact with the skin and inhalation of its vapor.
2. Corrosive: It is a corrosive compound that can cause corrosion to metals and some organic compounds.
3. Operation Note: When using or preparing the compound, it should be carried out in a well-ventilated laboratory environment, and appropriate personal protective measures should be taken, such as wearing protective gloves, safety glasses and gas masks.
