Zirconium(IV) acetate

Zirconium(IV) acetate

Chemical compound

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Zirconium(IV) acetate or zirconyl acetate, or just zirconium acetate, usually refers to the chemical formula Zr6O4(OH)4(CH3CO2)12 (hexazirconium(IV) tetroxide tetrahydroxide dodecaacetate). It is a white solid formed by the reaction of zirconyl chloride with acetic acid. Claims of Zr(CH3CO2)4 (zirconium(IV) acetate) have been superseded by experiments using X-ray crystallography.
