Zirconium acetylacetonate is the coordination complex with the formula Zr(C₅H₇O₂)₄. It is a common acetylacetonate of zirconium. It is a white solid that exhibits high solubility in nonpolar organic solvents, but not simple hydrocarbons.[1]

The complex is prepared by treating zirconium oxychloride with acetylacetone:[1]

ZrOCl₂ + 4 Hacac → Zr(acac)₄ + 2 HCl + H₂O

The complex has a square antiprismatic geometry with eight nearly equivalent Zr-O bonds of length 2.19 Å. The molecular symmetry is D₂, i.e. the complex is chiral.[2] Compounds of high coordination number tend to be stereochemically nonrigid as indicated by the observation of one methyl signal by proton NMR spectroscopy.[3]

More volatile than Zr(acac)₄ is the related complex of 1,1,1-trifluoroacetylacetonate.[3]
