Synthesis and Structures of Dinuclear Aluminum Complexes Based on Bis(β‐diketiminate) Ligands

A series of ten dinuclear aluminum alkyl complexes based on rigid, semirigid, and flexible bis(β‐diketiminate) ligands (NacNac) has been obtained from the reaction of trimethylaluminum and the corresponding bis(β‐diketimine)s. All compounds were fully characterized using NMR and IR spectroscopy and elemental analysis. The molecular structures of five compounds have been investigated by means of single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction analysis.image John Wiley & Sons, Ltd
