Single‐crystal barium titanate double alkoxide complex with a composition presumed to be BaTi(OCH(CH 3 ) 2 ) 6 ·xC 6 H 6 was successfully synthesized in this work. The crystal was converted to BaTiO 3 at 100°C. The preparation of the Oxides via single crystals of metal alkoxides has some advantages over the well‐known sol‐gel method in that it results in oxides with well‐defined and homogeneous compositions at the atomic level and in fine particle sizes, smaller than 50 nm.
