Abstract

The reactions between diethylaluminum halides and titanium tetrachloride in carbon tetrachloride have been studied by UV absorption spectrophotometry. No titanium trichloride precipitates, though titanium tetrachloride disappears. Apparently ligand exchange takes place and ethyltitanium trichloride is formed. When excess of diethylaluminum bromide is present, a complex is formed. On standing, the ethyltitanium trichloride is eventually converted back into titanium tetrachloride.
