Tetrakis(N,N-diethylcarbamato)titanium(IV)

Abstract

The mononuclear title compound, [Ti(C5H10NO2)4], is a rare example of an eight-coordinate TiIV compound in which all donor atoms are O atoms. The coordination geometry around TiIV is pseudo-dodecahedral and the O—C—O angles of the carbamate ligands are slightly compressed [range 115.3 (2)–116.7 (2)°], apparently on account of the high coordination number. One ethyl group is disordered over two positions; the site occupancy factors are 0.64 and 0.36.
