Answer 1

Answer:

Trimethoxytitanium chloride

trimethylorthoborate

All of these

Answer :

D

Solution :

The oranganometallic copmpounds must contain at lest one direct metal-to-carbon covalent bond. The metal can be transition, main group or f-group metal, and the term ''metal'' is often stretched to include B, Si, Ge, As, Sb, Se and Te. The carbon containing group (s) may be a carbonyl, alkene, alkyne aromatic, cyclic or hetroctclic copmpound. Thus, sodium ethoxide

, trimethoxytitanium chloride

and trimethylorthoborate

are not organometallic compounds.
