Redistribution reactions involving LiAlH4 and LiAlPh4 were performed by mixing the reagents in appropriate ratios.The products: LiAlH3Ph, LiAlH2Ph2 and LiAlHPh3 were isolated and characterised by elemental analysis, infrared and nmr spectroscopy and DTA-TGA analysis.These products were also prepared by the reaction of PhLi with AlHnPh3-n (where n=1-3) in diethylether.Also PhAlH2 and Ph2AlH were prepared by the reaction of Ph3Al and AlH3 in both diethyl ether and THF in the appropriate stoichiometric ratios.

The reactions of diphenylzinc with lithium aluminum hydride in diethyl ether and THF have been studied in detail. Although ZnH2 as an insoluble solid and LiAlPhnH4-n in solution are formed when the Ph2Zn:LiAlH4 ratio is 2:1, 3:2, 1:1, and 1:2 in ether, no ZnH2 is formed when Ph2Zn is allowed to react with LiAlH4 in THF in ratios varying from 4:1 to 1:2. Instead, PhZn2H3 is formed which is insoluble in THF. This compound is reported for the first time, and its existence is supported by IR, X-ray powder diffraction, and DTA-TGA studies. When ZnH2, prepared by the reaction of Ph2Zn with LiAlH4 in ether, was allowed to react with Ph2Zn and cyclopentadiene independently in THF, the insoluble products PhZn2H3 and CpZn2H3 formed. Reaction of cyclohexanol with ZnH2 is also discussed.
