N2 - Structures of N-bound alane (AlH3) and gallane (GaH3) are reported: the dimethylbenzylamine adduct of gallane, [(PhCH2(Me)2NGaH3], which is monomeric with four-coordinate Ga, and the first chlorine containing amino complex of alane, [ClCH2CH2CH2(Me)2NAlH 3]2, revealing that hydride bridging is favoured over Al-Cl interaction in Al obtaining a five-coordination environment. Also presented is a reinvestigation of the previously poorly defined structural determination of the trimethylamine adduct of gallane, [Me3NGaH3].
