The existence of Ti3N4 was proposed as the first product of the thermal decomposition of precipitates obtained in ammonolysis reactions of titanium(IV) dialkylamides. The evidence is re-evaluated and further evidence is presented to demonstrate that these materials are probably TiN contaminated with carbon. However, this precursor system is demonstrated to be a good route to finely divided, nanocrystalline TiN powders.
