Titanium tribromide

Titanium Dibromide. Titanium dibromide [13873-04-5] a black crystalline soHd, density 4310 kg/m, mp 1025°C, has a cadmium iodide-type stmcture and is readily oxidized to trivalent titanium by water. Spontaneously flammable in air (142), it can be prepared by direct synthesis from the elements, by reaction of the tetrabromide with titanium, or by thermal decomposition of titanium tribromide. This last reaction must be carried out either at or below 400°C, because at higher temperatures the dibromide itself disproportionates. 

Titanium Tribromide. Titanium tribromide [13135-31 ] crystaUizes in two different habits hexagonal plates or blue-black needles. It can be prepared by the reaction of TiBr with either titanium or hydrogen. 

Titanium tribromide has been prepared in the same apparatus. As the tetrabromide is solid at room temperature, hot water or steam is used as a coolant for the condensers... 

Titanium trichloride and titanium tribromide are both purple crystalline solids, the latter being a good deal darker with a reddish cast. They are both soluble in water and other polar solvents and neither can be recovered unchanged from these solutions. When heated, these two halides decompose before melting to the di- and tetrahalides. It has been reported that dichloride of high purity can be produced by this method.8...

Three studies of titanium(m) compounds have been described. Full details have now been given of the five-co-ordinate bis(trimethylamino)titanium tribromide structure which has trigonal-bipyramidal geometry. The titanium co-ordination polyhedron has, within the limits of experimental error, i>s symmetry, in contrast to that of the analogous chromium compound, which has a distorted geometry. The lack of distortion in the titanium(in) structure is ascribed to the location of the single unpaired electron in a non-deforming e orbital.
