The X-ray crystal structure of titanium(IV) oxo-bis-2,2,6,6-tetramethy
lheptan-3,5-dionate, pentane (1:1) adduct has been determined. The tet
rameric molecule of [TiO(thd)(2)](4) contains a nearly planar (Ti-O)(4
) ring with two Ti atoms on a twofold axis. Compared with the dimeric
titanium oxo-bis-(acetylacetonate), another type of TiO6 octahedral co
nnection takes place, namely through vertices instead of edges. Copyri
