Abstract

Exposure of methylaluminium dichloride to air results in the formation of a crystalline hydrolysis/ oxidation product of the composition [(MeOAlCl2)3][(MeOAlCl2)2(HOAlCl2)], which is linked by a H···Cl hydrogen bond in the solid state. Oxygen is thus inserted into the carbon-aluminium bond in the primary reaction, whereas hydrolysis plays only a minor role.
