Crystal structure and computational analysis of tetra-kis-(aceto-nitrile)-bis-(nona-fluoro-<i>tert</i>-butanolato)titanium(III) complex as a salt of the weakly coordinating [Al{OC(CF₃)₃}₄]^- anion.

ABSTRACT: The title compound, [Ti(C₄F₉O)₂(C₂H₃N)₄][Al(C₄F₉O)₄] or [Ti{OC(CF₃)₃}₂(CH₃CN)₄][Al{OC(CF₃)₃}₄], is the first structurally characterized complex of Ti^III containing four aceto-nitrile mol-ecules and perfluorinated alk-oxy-aluminate in its coordination sphere. The [Ti{OC(CF₃)₃}₂(CH₃CN)₄]⁺ cation adopts a compressed octa-hedral geometry where aceto-nitrile occupies the equatorial positions with apically bound alkoxide anions.
