A Brief Review on the Use of Chelation Agents in Sol-gel Synthesis with Emphasis on β-Diketones and β-Ketoesters
Metal alkoxides are the most commonly used sol-gel process precursors. Most alkoxides show excessive reactivity towards water. That leads to rapid hydrolysis, metal hydroxide formation, and immediate precipitation. The reactivity of alkoxides can be reduced by modification with chelation agents. Che...
