Abstract

Novel adducts of lithium hexafluoroacetylacetonato {Li(hfa)} with polyethers (monoglyme = {CH₃OCH₂CH₂OCH₃}, diglyme = {CH₃O(CH₂CH₂O)₂CH₃}, triglyme = {CH₃O(CH₂CH₂O)₃CH₃} and tetraglyme {CH₃O(CH₂CH₂O)₄CH₃} have been synthesized through a single step reaction and characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR, single crystal X-ray diffraction studies along with thermal analysis.
