Abstract

An X-ray diffraction analysis and quantum chemical calculations of hydrated 2-thenoyltrifluoroacetone show that the planar diketone, form of ТТА found in its metal complexes, does not occur in the free ligand. Hydrated ТТА with two geminal hydroxo groups has a non-planar structure stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond.
