Usage

General Description

Colorless liquid. Dangerous fire and explosion hazard. Used as an intermediate in production of organometallics.

Air & Water Reactions

Pyrophoric in air [Hawley]. Reacts violently with water, Rose(1961).

Reactivity Profile

Organometallics, such as DIETHYLALUMINUM CHLORIDE, are reactive with many other groups. Incompatible with acids and bases. Organometallics are good reducing agents and therefore incompatible with oxidizing agents. Often reactive with water to generate toxic or flammable gases. Organometallics containing halogens (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine) bonded to the metal typically with generate gaseous hydrohalic acids (HF, HCl, HBr, HI) with water.

Purification Methods

Distil it from excess dry NaCl (to remove ethyl aluminium dichloride) in a 50-cm column containing a heated nichrome spiral. [Beilstein 4 IV 4403.]

METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING DIALKYL ZINC AND DIALKYL ALUMINUM MONOHALIDE

Disclosed is a manufacturing method for dialkyl zinc and dialkyl aluminum monohalide that makes it possible to efficiently manufacture both dialkyl zinc and dialkyl aluminum monohalide of high purity and at a high yield on an industrial scale with a single reaction from zinc chloride and trialkyl aluminum starting materials, while suppressing the production of precipitates in the reaction process and suppressing the adhesion of precipitates to the equipment and the admixture thereof into the product. The manufacturing method for dialkyl zinc and dialkyl aluminum monohalide is a dialkyl zinc and dialkyl aluminum monohalide manufacturing method that causes a reaction between zinc chloride and trialkyl aluminum, and uses trialkyl aluminum with a hydride concentration of 0.01 mass% to 0.10 mass%. Dialkyl zinc that contains essentially no aluminum is separated from the reactants, and then dialkyl aluminum monohalide that contains essentially no zinc is separated.

Effect of crystallization water and nature of an aluminum alkyl on the reduction of Eu3+ to Eu2+ in interaction of EuCl 3 ? 6H2O with Bu 3 i Al and Et3Al

Volumetric and photoluminescence analytical techniques were employed to study the effect of crystallization water and nature of an aluminum alkyl on the reduction of Eu3+ to Eu2+ in a heterophase interaction of EuCl3 ? 6H
