The protonolysis reaction of heterobimetallic peralkylaled complexes [Ln(AlR4)2]n (Ln = Sm, Yb; R = Me, Et) with 2 equiv of HOC6H2tBu2-2,6-Me-4 affords the bis(trialkylaluminum) adducts Ln[(μ-OArtBu,Me)(μ-R)AlR 2]2 in good yields. Analogous reactions with the less sterically demanding iPr-substituted phenol result in ligand redistributions and formation of X-ray structurally evidenced Ln[(μ-OAriPr,H) 2AlR2]2 (Ln = Yb, R = Me; Ln = Sm, R = Et), Yb[(μ-OAriPr,H)(μ-Et)AlEt2]2(THF), and [Et2Al(μ-OAriPr,H)2Yb(μ-Et) 2AlEt2]2. The solid-state structures of serendipitous alumoxane complex Sm[(μ-OArtBu,Me)AlEt 2OAlEt2(μ-OArtBu,Me)](toluene) and dimeric AlMe3-adduct complex [(AlMe3)(μ-OArtBu,Me) Sm(μ-OArtBu,Me)2Sm(μ-OArtBu,Me)(AlMe 3)] were also determined by X-ray crystallography. While the former can be discussed as a typical hydrolysis product of Sm[(μ-OAr tBu,Me)(μ-Et)AlEt2]2, the latter was isolated from the 1:1 reaction of [Sm(AlEt4)2]n with HOArtBu,Me.
