SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on comparing the covalent character of titanium chlorides, specifically TiCl3 and TiCl4. It is established that TiCl4 exhibits a higher covalent character than TiCl3 due to its greater cationic charge and structural characteristics. The comparison also references TiBr3, indicating that the structural analysis of these compounds is crucial for understanding their covalent properties.
