While it is commonly agreed that titanium does form a number of compounds in which it would appear to have a valency of two, it has not been conclusively proved that the divalent compounds form simple ions, and not the complex type of ion of the so-called dichlorides of niobium and molybdenum. However, divalent titanium is reported as having strong reducing powers and reactions consistent with simple positive ions of valency two.pdfen-NZhttps://www.wgtn.ac.nz/library/about-us/policies-and-strategies/copyright-for-the-researcharchiveTitaniumChemistryTextAll rights, except those explicitly waived, are held by the Author
