The ethyl substituted aluminum hydroxide LAlEt(OH) (2; L = HC[C(Me)N(Ar)]2; Ar = 2,6-iPr2C6H3) was prepared by the hydrolysis of LAlEt(Cl) (1) in the presence of a N-heterocyclic carbene. The reaction of 2 with Cp2ZrMe2 in toluene afforded LAlEt(μ-O)ZrMeCp2 (3) by evolution of methane, while the reaction of 2 with Cp3M in THF led to the intermolecular elimination of HCp and formation of LAlEt(μ-O)M(THF)Cp2 (M = Yb, 4; Er, 5; Dy, 6; Y, 7). Compounds 2 and 3 were characterized by single X-ray structural analysis. Compound 2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121, while compound 3 crystallizes in space group Pnma. In both cases, the displacement of the Al and the γ-C atom out of the NCCN plane is observed in a boat conformation, but with converse direction. Furthermore, compound 3 was used as catalyst for ethylene polymerization.

A novel, very simple and effective synthetic method for the formation of alkylaluminum complexes with terminal hydroxy group via hydrolysis of cyclopentadienylaluminum compounds has been found. Investigations of the hydrolysis of cyclopentadienylaluminum complexes (L)Al(Me)Cp (1) and (L)Al(Et)Cp (2) (L = HC[(CMe)(2,6-iPr2C6 H3N)]2) have shown that the reaction leads to the formation of (L)Al(Me)OH (3) and (L)Al(Et)OH (4), respectively. The high selectivity of the hydrolysis was revealed. The crystal structures of 1, 2 and 4 were determined.
