'''Titanium(III) chloride''' is the ] with the formula TiCl<sub>3</sub>. At least four distinct species have this formula; additionally ] derivatives are known. TiCl<sub>3</sub> is one of the most common halides of titanium and is an important catalyst for the manufacture of ]s.

==Structure and bonding==
In TiCl<sub>3</sub>, each titanium atom has one ''d'' electron, rendering its derivatives ], that is, the substance is attracted into a magnetic field. Solutions of titanium(III) chloride are violet, which arises from ] of its ]. The colour is not very intense since the transition is ] by the ].

Four solid forms or ] of TiCl<sub>3</sub> are known. All feature titanium in an octahedral coordination sphere. These forms can be distinguished by ] as well as by their magnetic properties, which probes ]s. β-TiCl<sub>3</sub> crystallizes as brown needles. Its structure consists of chains of TiCl<sub>6</sub> octahedra that share opposite faces such that the closest Ti–Ti contact is 2.91&nbsp;Å. This short distance indicates strong metal–metal interactions (see figure in upper right). The three violet "layered" forms, named for their color and their tendency to flake, are called alpha (α), gamma (γ), and delta (δ). In α-TiCl<sub>3</sub>, the chloride ]s are ]. In γ-TiCl<sub>3</sub>, the chlorides anions are ]. Finally, disorder in shift successions, causes an intermediate between alpha and gamma structures, called the δ form. The TiCl<sub>6</sub> share edges in each form, with 3.60&nbsp;Å being the shortest distance between the titanium cations. This large distance between titanium ]s precludes direct metal-metal bonding. In contrast, the trihalides of the heavier metals ] and ] engage in metal-metal bonding. Direct Zr–Zr bonding is indicated in ]. The difference between the Zr(III) and Ti(III) materials is attributed in part to the relative radii of these metal centers.<ref>{{Greenwood&Earnshaw2nd}}</ref>

Two hydrates of titanium(III) chloride are known, i.e. complexes containing ]s. These include the pair of ] {{chem2|Cl3 and Cl(H2O)2}}. The former is violet and the latter, with two molecules of water of crystallization, is green.<ref>{{Greenwood&Earnshaw2nd|page = 965}}</ref>

==Synthesis and reactivity==
TiCl<sub>3</sub> is produced usually by reduction of ].

:2&nbsp;TiCl<sub>4</sub> + H<sub>2</sub> → 2&nbsp;HCl + 2&nbsp;TiCl<sub>3</sub>
It can also be produced by the reaction of titanium metal and hot, concentrated ]; the reaction does not proceed at room temperature, as titanium is ] against most ] by a thin surface layer of ].
:2&nbsp;Ti + 6&nbsp;HCl → 3&nbsp;H<sub>2</sub> + 2&nbsp;TiCl<sub>3</sub>

It is conveniently reduced with ] and sold as a mixture with ], TiCl<sub>3</sub>·AlCl<sub>3</sub>.

:TiCl<sub>3</sub> + 3 C<sub>4</sub>H<sub>8</sub>O → TiCl<sub>3</sub>(OC<sub>4</sub>H<sub>8</sub>)<sub>3</sub>
An analogous dark green complex arises from complexation with ].

==Applications==
TiCl<sub>3</sub> is the main ], responsible for most industrial production of ]. The catalytic activities depend strongly on the polymorph of the TiCl<sub>3</sub> (α vs. β vs. γ vs. δ) and the method of preparation.<ref>{{Ullmann|first1=Kenneth S. |last1=Whiteley |first2=T.
