The title compound, [Ti(C24H33O2)Cl3(C4H8O)], is a rare example of a trigonal–bipyramidal titanium coordination complex with three chloride and two oxygen donor ligands. The asymmetric unit contains two independent molecules having essentially the same conformation. The molecules feature the titanium(IV) metal cation complexed with three chloride ligands, a tetrahydrofuran molecule, and one oxygen atom from the resolved ligand precursor (R)-(+)-5,5′,6,6′-tetramethyl-3,3′-di-t-butyl-1,1′-biphenyl-2,2′-diol, where the remaining phenolic hydrogen atom engages in intermolecular O—H...Cl hydrogen bonding. In one molecule, the THF ligand is disordered over two orientations with refined site occup…
