Description:Barium(II) isopropoxide is an organometallic compound characterized by its barium cation and isopropoxide anions. It typically appears as a white to off-white solid and is known for its hygroscopic nature, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. This compound is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols and ethers, which makes it useful in various chemical reactions, particularly in organic synthesis and as a catalyst. Barium(II) isopropoxide is often employed in the preparation of barium-containing materials and can act as a precursor for barium oxide or other barium compounds. Due to the presence of barium, it is important to handle this substance with care, as barium compounds can be toxic and pose health risks if ingested or inhaled. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and working in a well-ventilated area, are essential when working with this chemical.
