Procedure

If magnesium isopropanolate, together with e.g., 20 moles % of tetrabutoxy titanium, with respect to the amount of magnesium, and one or two equivalents of decanol, is introduced into an organic solvent, and the mixture is heated, a desirably low-viscosity solution of magnesium isopropanolatedecanolate, and/or of magnesium didecanolate, is formed, from which the liberated isopropanol can now readily be evaporated so as to achieve substantially full completion of the reaction.
