Trapping an Unusual Ring-Opened Product of THF within a Lithium Hydrido Aluminate

The reduction of Al­(NONDipp)I (NONDipp = [O(SiMe2NDipp)2]2–, Dipp = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) using lithium metal in THF solvent afforded the but-3-enyl-1-oxido product Al­(NONDipp)­(H)­(μ-OCH2CH2CHCH2)­Li­(THF)2. This is the first time that the metalated product of this unusual THF activation pathway has bee...

Description
Summary:The reduction of Al­(NONDipp)I (NONDipp = [O(SiMe2NDipp)2]2–, Dipp = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) using lithium metal in THF solvent afforded the but-3-enyl-1-oxido product Al­(NONDipp)­(H)­(μ-OCH2CH2CHCH2)­Li­(THF)2. This is the first time that the metalated product of this unusual THF activation pathway has been isolated and structurally characterized.
