Procedure

8.60 g (28.3 mmol) of europium chloride (anhydrous) were added to a dried 250 mL round bottom flask under a nitrogen atmosphere. After the addition of 40 mL of dried isopropanol, the mixture was stirred and heated to reflux temperature. The white powders dissolved to form a clear solution. In a separate dry flask, 1.95 g (84.8 mmol) of sodium pieces was reacted with 60 mL of dried isopropanol. At the end of the reaction, the formed sodium isopropoxide was diluted with 100 mL of dried benzene. The solution was added dropwise to the europium chloride solution. The reaction took place immediately after the addition of sodium isopropoxide, as characterized by the precipitation of white sodium chloride. After the addition, the reaction mixture was stirred for an additional 2 h at boiling temperature, and then cooled to the room temperature. The mixture was allowed to stand overnight to ensure the full separation of sodium chloride. The clear top-layer was europium isopropoxide in isopropanol/benzene. The concentration of Eu(OiPr)3 is 0.1337 M (yield: about 95.5%).
