propan-2-olate;yttrium(3+)

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: 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.

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: The same reaction was done exactly the same way except no zinc was milled with the yttrium. The milled yttrium was reacted with isopropanol in the same way. There was very little evolution of hydrogen and work-up of the reaction solutions gave a yield of less than 10% for yttrium isopropoxide. The same reaction

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: Sol-gel libraries were deposited on silicon wafer substrates. Stock solutions of yttrium isopropoxide, aluminum isopropoxide, gadolinium isopropoxide and gallium isopropoxide were prepared in 2-methoxyethanol (0.25 M) refluxing under Argon for 8 hours. To each of the four stock solutions of yttrium, gadolinium, aluminum and gallium in methoxyethanol (0.25 M), 1 equivalent of 2,4-pentandione was added with stirring, followed by the addition of anhydrous ethylene glycol (15% v/v). The yttrium and gadolinium solutions contained Ce(NO)3.6H2O at 1.0 mol % as the dopant source. refluxing under Argon for 8 hours

Conditions: temp:0.00; pressure:0.00; stir:; See reaction.notes.procedure_details.

Procedure: The precursor for the NiO gel is nickel nitrate dissolved in ethanol or isopropanol. The precursor for Y2O3 is either yttrium nitrate or yttrium isopropoxide. Yttrium nitrate solution is prepared by dissolving Y2O3 in nitric acid solution. The solution is then evaporated to dryness to prepare yttrium nitrate which is then dissolved in ethanol or isopropanol at a pH of about 3. Alternatively, yttrium sol is prepared by dissolving yttrium isopropoxide in isopropanol. The solution is then evaporated to dryness to prepare yttrium nitrate which

Procedure: Lithium isopropoxide (24.3 g, 0.37 mol.) and isopropyl alcohol (150 ml) were placed in a round-bottomed flask of a 300 ml-capacity, to which was then added dropwise a solution of anhydrous yttrium trichloride (23.4 g, 0.12 mol.) in 25 ml of tetrahydrofuran under stirring. After the addition of the yttrium trichloride, the mixture in the flask was stirred at 45° C. for 3 hours with heating by means of a mantle heater, followed by concentration of the reaction solution to dryness by evaporation of the solvent. The residue obtained was admixed with 150 ml of benzene and the resultant solution was filtered to remove the insoluble matter. Distillation off of the benzene from the filtered solution gave 16.8 g of yttrium isopropoxide as a slightly yellow crystal. Yield 52.6% the mixture in the flask was stirred at 45° C. for 3 hours with heating by means of a mantle heater followed by concentration of the reaction solution to dryness by evaporation of the solvent The residue obtained the resultant solution was filtered to remove the insoluble matter Distillation off of the benzene from the filtered solution
