Novel Bidentate N-coordinated Alkylaluminum Complexes: Synthesis, Characterization, and Efficient Catalysis for Hydrophosphonylation

Five new alkylaluminum complexes with different pyridinyl-substituted imines or cyclohexyl-substituted imines were synthesized and characterized successfully. The aluminum complex [FlCHNCH(CH3)Py]AlMe2(Py=2-Pyridyl) (1) was obtained by reacting with 9-[2-Pyridyl-CH(CH3)-N=CH]Fl(Fl=Fluorenyl) (L1) and equimolar...
