Abstract
Barium granules suspended in toluene react rapidly and exothermically with 2-methoxyethanol to yield a hydrocarbon-soluble, volatile (160 °C, 10–1 Torr; 1 Torr = 133.322 Pa), crystalline oxo-alkoxide H4Ba6(µ6-O)(OCH2CH2OCH3)14 which has been characterized by a single-crystal X-ray study; a central octahedral Ba6(µ6-O) unit is supported by eight µ3-η2-OCH2CH2OCH3, four η2-OCH2CH2OMe and two η1-OCH2CH2OMe groups and intermolecular hydrogen bonds.Keywords
