Bis(μ-2-hy­droxy­methyl-2-methyl­propane-13-diolato)bis­di­chlorido­titanium(IV) diethyl ether disolvate

摘要

The title complex, [Ti2Cl4{CH3C(CH2O)2(CH2OH)}2], lies across a centre of symmetry with a diethyl ether solvent mol­ecule hydrogen bonded to the –CH2OH groups on either side of it. The Ti^IV atom is coordinated in a distorted octa­hedral geometry by a tripodal ligand and two terminal chloride atoms. There are three coordination modes for the tripodal ligand distinguishable on the basis of their very different Ti—O bond lengths. For the terminal alkoxo ligand, the Ti—O distance is 1.760 (1) Å, the asymmetric bridge system has Ti—O bond lengths of 1.911 (1) and 2.048 (1) Å. The Ti—O bond length for the alcohol O atom is the longest at 2.148 (1) Å.
