Vanadyl isopropoxide

Vanadyl isopropoxide is the metal alkoxide with the formula VO(O-iPr)3 (iPr = CH(CH3)2). A yellow volatile liquid, it is a common alkoxide of vanadium. It is used as a reagent and as a precursor to vanadium oxides.[1] The compound is diamagnetic, with tetrahedral geometry. It is prepared by alcoholysis of vanadyl trichloride:

VOCl3 + 3 HOCH(CH3)2 → VO(OCH(CH3)2)3 + 3 HCl
