Abstract

The reaction of LAlH 2 (L = HC(CMeNAr) 2, Ar = 2,6-iPr 2C 6H 3) (1) with 2-aminobenzenethiol, 2-aminophenol, and 1,4-dithiane-2,5-diol resulted in the compounds LAl[(μ-N)(μ-S)](o-C 6H 4) (2), LAl[(μ-O)(o-C 6H 4)(NH 2)] 2 (3), and LAl(μ-O) 2(p-dithiane) (4), respectively. Compound 2 features an organic-inorganic hybrid containing an NAlSC 2 five-membered ring, while compound 3 exhibits a C-O-Al-O-C chain structure. Compound 4 forms a basket-like molecule with the C 4S 2 unit as the bottom part and O 2Al as the handle. Complexes 2, 3, and 4 were characterized by 1H NMR, elemental analysis, and single-crystal X-ray diffraction studies.
