Abstract

The reactions of trimethylaluminium, dimethylaluminium chloride, and methylaluminium dichloride with acrylonitrile have been investigated. They have been found to afford equimolecular donor-acceptor complexes. The complexes react at elevated temperatures to yield methane and derivatives of dihydro and hexahydro-pyrimidine. The yields of the products of the methylaluminium compounds investigated have been studied in relation to the reaction temperature. Reaction mechanisms have been discussed in terms of the data obtained.
