Influence of the lead carboxylate on the molecular composition of its solutions with zirconium and titanium isopropoxides or n-butoxides : 2-ethylhexanoate vs acetate, a way to stabilize the first Pb-Zr carboxylatoalkoxides of 1:1 stoichiometry

The reactions between titanium or zirconium alkoxides namely Ti(OR)4 (R = iPr, nBu) or Zr2(OiPr)8(HOiPr)2, Zr(OnBu)4 respectively and lead 2-ethylhexanoate Pb(O2CC7H15)2 were investigated at room temperature (rt) and by heating. The various compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR,...

Description
Summary:The reactions between titanium or zirconium alkoxides namely Ti(OR)4 (R = iPr, nBu) or Zr2(OiPr)8(HOiPr)2, Zr(OnBu)4 respectively and lead 2-ethylhexanoate Pb(O2CC7H15)2 were investigated at room temperature (rt) and by heating. The various compounds were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, 1H and 207Pb NMR. The mixed-metal species obtained at rt were adducts Pb4Zr4(μ-O2CR′)8(OR)16(OHR)21 and Pb2Ti4(μ-O2CR′)4(OR)162 (R′=CHCHEt(CH2)2Me, R = iPr) independently of the stoichiometry used. The structures of 1 and 2 are based on triangular M2Pb cores (M = Zr, Ti). with 6-coordinate transition metals -as required for perovskites- and 6- or 7-coordinate lead atoms. Similar observations were made with n-butoxides. Thermal and hydrolytic condensation reactions were investigated. Thermal condensation was more difficult for the n-butoxide derivatives than for the isopropoxide ones. Powders derived from the hydrolysis of the Single Source Precursor 1 in various conditions were characterized by TGA, XRD and SEM for the PZ ceramic.
