The
titanium(III) cyanide compound [Et4N][Tp*Ti(CN)3] ([Et4N] = tetraethylamonium; Tp* = 3,5-dimethyltrispyrazolylhydroborate)
is reported, which exhibits a trigonally distorted geometry. Magnetic
data and ab initio calculations verified that the molecule is an S = 1/2 paramagnet and that it exhibits
significant temperature-independent paramagnetism.
