Particular features of hydrolysis and thermolysis

A number of rather thoroughly written and detailed reviews have been devoted to the problems associated with hydrolysis and thermolysis of heteroleptic complexes authored mainly by Sanchez [1394, 1021], 

When x exceeds 1, the free aggregates of this type appear in solution after hydrolysis. When x = 2 (i.e., in the situation when IV becomes the main molecular precursor), such aggregate was characterized by X-ray single crystal study, anditwas shown to have Ce6(m-0)4( i3-0H)4(acac)i2 composition [1590].
