Popis: The reactions of trialkylaluminium, R 3 Al, with ( S )-(−)α,α-diphenyl-2-pyrrolidinyl-methanol have been investigated, in which unusual bis-complexes RAl(OR*) 2 were obtained [OR*=( S )-α,α-diphenyl-2-pyrrolidinyl-methoxide (Dpm), R=Me ( 1 ), Et ( 2 ), 1-Nor ( 3 )]. A similar reaction carried out with R= t -Bu yields, by contrast, the expected mono-alkoxide R 2 AlOR* ( 4 ). All compounds were characterised by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. The molecular structures are monomeric. In 1 – 3 , the aluminium centres bonded to the nitrogen atoms of two chelating ligands are five-coordinate, while the metal atom contained in 4 is tetrahedrally surrounded. The absolute structures of all complexes were determined from X-ray diffraction data. The formation of the dative AlN bonds is stereospecific in all cases.
