Useful:

• Chemical Classes: Metals -> Metals, Inorganic Compounds
• Canonical SMILES: [AlH3]
• Physical properties: Colorless cubic crystal; very unstable; decomposes in water; ?Η°? ?11.0 kcal/mol (-46.0kJ/mol).
• Uses: As catalyst for polymerizations; reducing agent. Lithium aluminum hydride, q.v. is a more powerful reagent because of its greater soly. Aluminum Hydride is a relatively unstable polymeric covalent hydride that received considerable attention in the mid- 1960s because of its potential as a high energy additive to solid rocket propellants. The projected uses, including aluminum plating, never materialized, and in spite of intense research and development, commercial manufacture has not been undertaken. The synthetic methods developed were costly.

Technology Process of Aluminum hydride

There total 43 articles about Aluminum hydride which guide to synthetic route it. The literature collected by LookChem mainly comes from the sharing of users and the free literature resources found by Internet computing technology. We keep the original model of the professional version of literature to make it easier and faster for users to retrieve and use. At the same time, we analyze and calculate the most feasible synthesis route with the highest yield for your reference as below:

synthetic route:

Reference yield:

aluminum (III) chloride (7446-70-0,7784-13-6) + lithium aluminium tetrahydride (16853-85-3) → aluminium hydride (7784-21-6)

Guidance literature:

In tetrahydrofuran;

Reference yield:

lithium aluminium tetrahydride (16853-85-3) → aluminium hydride (7784-21-6)

Guidance literature:

With sulfuric acid; Product distribution / selectivity;

Reference yield:

hydrogen (1333-74-0) + aluminium (7429-90-5) → aluminium hydride (7784-21-6)

Guidance literature:

In solid matrix; Irradiation (UV/VIS); condensation of Al atoms (evaporated from graphite vessel, 1273 K) in Ar or Kr matrix contg. 5% H2 (16 K), then broadband irradiation (200-800 nm, 10-40 min); not isolated, detd. by NMR spectroscopy;
