Abstract

Reaction of aluminium vapour or LiAlH ₄ -aluminium metal-hexane with 1,4-di-t-butyl-1,4-diazabutadiene (dbdab) yields dark green [Al(dbdab) ₂ ] (1), whereas AlH ₃ ·NMe ₃ with dbdab in hexane at -80°C yields the corresponding hydroalumination product [Al(dbdab){N(Bu ^t )CH ₂ } ₂ ] (2) as a yellow solid; although both compounds are paramagnetic, XPS (solid) and EPR (solution) spectroscopy, and X-ray structure determinations support formally Al ^III centres with the unpaired electron ligand-centred.
