Inorganic-organic hybrids were synthesized by the reaction of inorganic species of Ti(OC{sub 2}H{sub 5}){sub 4}, Nb(OC{sub 2}H{sub 5}){sub 5}, Ta(OC{sub 2}H{sub 5}){sub 5} and Fe(OC{sub 2}H{sub 5}){sub 3} with an organic polymer of ethyl cellulose. The studies of FT-IR spectroscopy revealed that m-O-cellulose bonds were formed by the reaction of ethoxy groups of metal ethoxides with hydroxy groups of ethyl cellulose. The dielectric constants of the resulting Ti-O-, Nb-O- and Ta-O-cellulose hybrids were higher than that of ethyl cellulose. The molar magnetic susceptibility of the Fe-O-cellulose hybrid was independent of iron content and was lower than that of Fe(OC{sub 2}H{sub 5}){sub 3}.
