Synthesis and characterization of new alkoxotitanates of yttrium, barium and copper: Single crystal X-ray diffraction structures of Cl{sub 2}Y(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}), (Ti(OPr{sup i}){sub 5})Ba(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}), and ClCu(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9})

The synthesis and characterization of new mixed-metal alkoxides of titanium with yttrium, barium, and copper, achieved via salt elimination and acid-base reactions, is described. The metathesis reactions of KTi{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9} with anhydrous YCl{sub 3} (1:1 and 2:1) and CuCl{sub 2} (1:1) afford chloro-functionalized heterobimetallic alkoxides Cl{sub 2}Y(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}) (1), ClY(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}){sub 2} (2), and ClCu(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}) (3), respectively, in high yields. The barium - titanium derivatives [Ba(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 10})]{sub 2} (4), (Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9})Ba(Ti(OPr{sup i}){sub 5}) (5), and Ba(Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}){sub 2} (6) result from the reaction between [Ba(OPr{sup i}){sub 2}]{sub n} and Ti(OPr{sup i}){sub 4} in 1:2, 1:3, and 1:4 molar ratios, respectively. All the new derivatives (1-6) have been characterized by elemental analyses, variable-temperature {sup 1}H and {sup 13}C NMR, infrared spectroscopy, cryoscopy, and single crystal X-ray diffraction studies for 1, 3, and 5. The crystallographic study of 1 reveals a mononuclear species where the yttrium atom, coordinated by four alkoxide oxygen atoms of the (Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}){sup -} unit and two chloride ligands, is in a pseudo-octahedral arrangement. The NMR ({sup 1}H and {sup 13}C) and cryoscopic data for 1 indicate that the bioctahedral (Ti{sub 2}(OPr{sup i}){sub 9}) framework, as observed in the solid state structure, is retained in solution also. The X-ray structure of copper derivative 3 exhibits a triangular heterometallic core CuTi{sub 2}({mu}{sub 2}-OPr{sup i}){sub 3}({mu}{sub 3}-OPr{sup i}){sub 2} with chloride as a terminal ligand on copper. 46 refs., 3 figs., 4 tabs.
