Abstract

Abstract High purity organometallic compounds can be obtained by the process which comprises subjecting an organometallic compound in a liquid state under stirring to preliminary oxidation or hydrolysis in a proportion of about 0.1 to 50% by weight of the organometallic compound to form solid reaction products, and separating by distillation the unreacted organometallic compound from the solid reaction products to recover the purified organometallic compound; and high purity metallic compounds such as a solid metallic hydroxide or oxide can be obtained by the process which comprises following the process as mentioned above, oxidizing or hydrolyzing completely the recovered purified organometallic compound.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 94 words
A process for producing high purity organometallic compounds which comprises subjecting an organometallic compound selected from the group consisting of Al, Ga, In, Si, Ti, Zr, and Sn compounds having a C 1 -C 12 alkyl or a C 1 -C 8 alkoxy group, in a liquid state under stirring to hydrolysis with a reactant preliminarily in a proportion of 0.1 to 50% by weight of the organometallic compound to form solid reaction products and then separating by distillation the unreacted organometallic compound from the solid reaction products to recover the purified organometallic compound.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 94 words
A process for producing high purity organometallic compounds which comprises subjecting an organometallic compound selected from the group consisting of Al, Ga, In, Si, Ti, Zr, and Sn compounds having a C 1 -C 12 alkyl or a C 1 -C 8 alkoxy group, in a liquid state under stirring to hydrolysis with a reactant preliminarily in a proportion of 0.1 to 50% by weight of the organometallic compound to form solid reaction products and then separating by distillation the unreacted organometallic compound from the solid reaction products to recover the purified organometallic compound.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 24 words
