Bis‐(triphenylphosphane) Aluminum Hydride: A Simple Way to Provide, Store, and Use Non‐Polymerized Alane for Synthesis

Abstract: AlH3(PPh3)2 was synthesized as a stable solid being the first known 1 : 2 alane arylphosphane adduct. Although only weakly intra‐molecularly coordinated, it displays as a molecular crystal significant inertness against atmospheric humidity and oxygen due to strong steric screening of the alane unit. The compound readily dissociates PPh3 in solution allowing for its use as a Lewis acidic reducing agent. These features lead to an easy to store, easy to use reducing agent that may enable the quantitative investig… Show more

“…Recently, a 1:2 alane arylphosphane adduct has been synthesised, which was shown to be able to release essentially free non-polymerised AlH 3 , which could be used in reduction and hydroalumination reactions. [5] Bulkier aluminium hydride species, such as diisobutylaluminium hydride (DIBAl-H), have been employed in effecting a wide range of reduction processes, including the (i) reduction of ketones and aldehydes to the corresponding alcohols, (ii) transforming α,β-unsaturated esters into the corresponding allylic alcohols [6,7] and (iii) epoxide ring opening reactions. [8] While the reactions of alkylsubstituted aluminium hydrides have received considerable attention, other aluminium hydride species have also been used in synthesis, albeit with much more limited scope to date.…”
