The +4 oxidation state dominates titanium chemistry,[1] but compounds in the +3 oxidation state are also numerous.[2] Commonly, titanium adopts an octahedral coordination geometry in its complexes,[3][4] but tetrahedral TiCl4 is a notable exception. Because of its high oxidation state, titanium(IV) compounds exhibit a high degree of covalent bonding.[1]
