HCID 16685055Aluminum tri-iso-propoxideYield 90%

Procedure

360 g anhydrous isopropanol, 0.0959 g mercuric salt and 13.5 g metallic aluminium scraps was refluxed at 83°-90° C. for 2-8 hours, evaporated off excess isopropand under normal pressure, triisopropoxyl aluminum was obtained by collecting distillation fraction of 110°-200° C. under reduced pressure of 1-10 mmHg. yield 90-100%.
