TLDR
In this article, it was shown that considerable attention in sol-gel chemistry of oxides should be paid to decomposition of M(OR)n with elimination of ether and formation of oxoalkoxides, containing M-O-M' bonds.
Abstract
Powders and thin films of the following simple and complex oxides have been obtained from metal alkoxides: MIITiO3 (M= Mg, Ca-Ba), MM1/3B2/3O3 (M= Sr, Ba, M' = Mg-Zn; B= Nb, Ta); MNbO3(M= Li, Na); ZrTiO4; PbTiO3; PZT, PLZT-materials; M2BO4 (M= Li, Na; B= Mo, W), Bi2BO6(B= Mo, W); LixWO3, WO3, MoO3, Bi2O3-WO3(solid solutions), YFeO3, Y3Fe5O12; YBa2Cu3O7-; Bi2Sr2CaCu2Ox; Bi2Sr2Ca2Cu3Ox. For synthesis of metal alkoxides and solutions containing two or more elements electrochemical technique (the anodic dissolution of metals in alcohols) has been used. Analysis of different examples emphasises that considerable attention in sol-gel chemistry of oxides should be paid to decomposition of M(OR)n with elimination of ether and formation of oxoalkoxides, containing M-O-M' bonds-the basis of future oxide phases.

TL;DR: Investigation of the solvent and alkoxide precursor effect on the nonhydrolytic sol-gel synthesis of oxide nanoparticles by means of an ether elimination (Bradley) reaction indicates that the best crystallinity of the resulting oxide particles is achieved on application of aprotic ketone solvents and of smallest possible alkoxide groups.
