Comproportionation of a dialuminyne with alane or dialane dihalides as a clean route to dialuminenes
Joshua D. Queen, Philip P. Power
Abstract
which was trapped as its cycloaddition product (4) with benzene. Even in non-aromatic, essentially inert, solvents red 4 decomposes to colorless solutions. This indicates that the instability of the free dialuminene is an inherent property rather than arising from of the method of synthesis, solvent employed, or the presence of impurities.
