The original purpose of this research was to gain some insight into the mechanism of hydrolysis of aluminium isopropoxide and into the structures of the products obtained. In order to achieve this end I have firstly carried out a survey of the available literature on aluminium alkoxides and related compounds. Following this | have described several practical studies which | carried out in order to familiarise myself with this area of chemistry. Finally, | have included a section which outlines what information | have been able to deduce on the hydrolysis of aluminium isopropoxide.
