Ethylene glycol can complex with titanium alkoxide to yield a chelated and stabilized titanium glycolate species that can be used as an excellent precursor for coating nanoscale colloidal objects. The titanium glycolate coating can be converted to crystalline TiO2 either through high temperature calcination or refluxing in water.
