The use of Raman spectroscopy can be greatly hindered by the presence of fluorescing impurities. Even at low concentrations, fluorescence can completely obscure the Raman signal. In the current study, Raman spectra were recorded for various titanium alkoxides (ethoxide, isopropoxide, isobutoxide) as a function of concentration and laser excitation wavelength. It has been shown that fluorescence can be avoided by using uv-excitation (363.8 nm). In addition, titanium alkoxides exhibit a preresonance Raman enhancement as the excitation wavelength appreaches the UV. This result is confirmed by a uv-visible absorption spectrum of the isopropoxide.
