• Description: Titanium chloride is a chemical compound with the formula TiCl4. It is soluble in many organic solvents, and it reacts with water to form an acidic solution of hydrochloric acid. Titanium chloride is used as a catalyst for the synthesis of polymers such as poly(trifluoroethylene) and poly(vinyl chloride). This compound also has been used in clinical studies to treat chronic bronchitis. The reaction mechanism of titanium chloride is not clear, but it has been suggested that it may involve a Friedel-Crafts type reaction or an electrochemical process. The transport properties of titanium chloride are not well studied, but fluorescence spectrometry indicates that the molecule contains cationic moieties and carbonyl groups. Titanium chloride can be synthesized by a two-step process: first, iron oxide (FeO) is reacted with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), followed by addition of TiCl4.
