TiCl3 is oxidized by SOCl2 in the presence of the appropriate amount of [NEt3Bz]Cl or [PPN]Cl [Bz = benzyl; PPN = bis(triphenylphosphanyl)iminium] to afford the corresponding salts of [Ti 2Cl9]-, [Ti2Cl10] 2- or [TiCl6]2-. The results of cyclic voltammetric and solution IR studies in the Ti-Cl stretching region are interpreted in terms of a rapid chloride-redistribution equilibrium between [Ti2Cl10]2- on one side and a mixture of [Ti2Cl9]- and a previously unreported [Ti 2Cl11]3- species on the other side. In the solid state, however, a compound with the [PPN]3[Ti 2Cl11] stoichiometry exists as a mixture of [PPN] 2[Ti2Cl10] and [PPN]2[TiCl 6]. The PPN salt of [Ti2Cl9]- has been structurally characterized by X-ray diffractometry. Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2004.
