Tris 2,4-pentanedionato zirconium IV Chloride

The compound may also be prepared by using benzene as a solvent, from which it can be precipitated by the addition of petroleum ether, but with a somewhat lower yield (approximately 55%). 

Tris(2,4-pentanedionato) zirconium (IV) chloride forms colorless prismatic crystals, which are decomposed by atmospheric moisture. The crystals are soluble in most

Separate molecular weight determinations by the ebullio-scopic method using benzene and butanone as solvents provide values of 211 and 192, respectively. Inasmuch as the formula weight of [Zr(C6H702)3]Cl is 424, these values indicate that the complex is practically completely ionized. This is confirmed also by conductometric measurements in benzene and butanone and by the ready precipitation of silver chloride by silver perchlorate in acetone solution.
