Abstract
The combination of one and two equivalents of AlMe3 with the ligand, Salean(tBu)H4 (N,N′-bis((3,5-di-tert-butyl)-2-hydroxybenzyl)-1,2-diamino ethane) leads to the compounds, Salean(tBu)H2AlMe (1), and Salean(tBu)HAlMe(AlMe2) (2). When 2 is exposed to air, [Salean(tBu)HAlOMe]2 (3) first forms, and then, after several days, [Salean(tBu)H2AlOH]2 (4). Compound 4 is the only product that occurs when 1 is exposed to air. All four compounds have been characterized by spectroscopic (IR, 1H NMR, 27Al NMR) and physical techniques (Mp, C,H analysis) and, in the case of 3 and 4, by X-ray crystallography. The structures consist of dimeric units with bridging OMe and OH groups.
