The same procedure described in Example 3 was utilized except that ZnCl2 was substituted for zinc metal but was not milled with the yttrium. The milled yttrium, without zinc metal or zinc chloride, was reacted with a solution of isopropanol (500 cc) and 3 grams of ZnCl2 over a 24 hour period. Work-up of the reaction mixture yielded 41.6 grams (a 70% yield) of yttrium isopropoxide.
