Known and unknown methyltitanium compounds such as [Ti(CH3)4], [Ti(CH3)5]−, [Ti2(CH3)9]− (structure shown), and [Ti(CH3)xCl4−x] (x = 1–3) are prepared and structurally characterized. While all of these can be considered coordinatively and electronically highly unsaturated, no indication of intramolecular agostic hydrogen bonding is found.
