THE REACTION OF ALUMINIUM BOROHYDRIDE WITH TIN AND LEAD TETRAMETHYL

Journal Article · · J. Inorg. & Nuclear Chem.
Tin and lead tetramethyl do not react with diborane but both react vigorously with aluminum borohydride giving solid products which decompose ultimately to tin or lead, hydrogen, methylated boranes and methyl aluminum borohydride, MeAl(BH/sub 4/)/sub 2/. No dimethyl aluminum borohydride or trimethyl aluminum are found. The nature of the decomposition products suggests the intermediate formation of compounds such as no evidence for replacement of more than two Methyls by borohydride groups. Possible explanations are given for the limitations observed in the replacement of borohydride by methyl groups, and vice versa. (auth)
