General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of the 12 Principles of Green Chemistry. This powerful Lewis acid catalyzes condensation reactions for siloxane and silicone synthesis. Beyond silicon chemistry, it enables sol-gel nanomaterial synthesis and Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reductions with high selectivity. Click here for more information.

Application

Titanium(IV) ethoxide can be used:
  • As an activator and dehydrating agent for by condensation of (S)-(+)-p-toluenesulfinamide with aldehydes and ketones to form sulfinimines.
  • As a Ti4+ ion source to form complexes of titanium (IV) acrylate with methacrylic acid.
  • As a catalyst to synthesize esters of sterically hindered alcohols via transesterification reactions.

Disclaimer

During storage a gelatinous residue may form, which dissolves after heating up to 40 °C
