Popis: | Calorimetric and computational investigation on the interaction of TiCl 4 with some Lewis bases (esters and ethers) is presented. The bases were chosen for their relevance in heterogeneous Ziegler-Natta polymerization of propene. Comparison of the theoretical data with the calorimetric data indicates that calculations consistently underestimate the experimental binding energies. In light of this consistency, we propose that an empirical correction term added to the theoretical binding energies could represent an empirical solution for the prediction of the TiCl 4 / donor binding energies with reasonable accuracy. |
