title: [(4R,5R)-(2,2-Dimethyl-1,3-dioxolane-4,5-di-yl)bis-(diphenyl-methano-lato)-κO:O']bis(N-methyl-methanamin-ato)titanium(IV).
abstract: In the title four-coordinate complex, [Ti(C(2)H(6)N)(2)(C(31)H(28)O(4))], two symmetry-independent mol-ecules are present in the asymmetric unit. The Ti(IV) atom displays a distorted tetra-hedral geometry, with Ti-O bond lengths ranging from 1.805 (3) to 1.830 (3) Å and O-Ti-O ligand bite angles of 100.16 (12) and 101.36 (12)°. The short Ti-N bond distances, ranging from 1.877 (4) to 1.905 (4) Å, indicate strong bonding between the Ti(IV) atom and the dimethyl-amide ligands.
