Promoting non-transition metal alkylation with organic halides in the presence of binary systems based on an organometallic compound and a transition metal compound: IX. Alkylation of aluminum and concluding remarks

Resumo

Study of aluminum powder alkylation with ethyl bromide in the presence of ethylaluminum sesquibromide and copper(I) iodide has revealed that binary systems based on an organometallic compound and a transition metal compound are efficient promotors of direct synthesis of organoaluminum compounds as well. Major conclusions drawn in a series of studies on non-transition metals (Zn, Cd, and Al) alkylation with organic halides in the presence of the binary systems are summarized.
