Bis[μ-2-(2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-methylphenolato]bis[dimethylaluminium(III)]

The title complex, [Al2(CH3)4(C13H10N3O)2], is dimeric, bridged through the O atoms of the phenolate anions. The asymmetric unit contains one half of the molecule and there is a crystallographic inversion centre in this molecule. Each Al atom is pentacoordinated by one N atom and two bridging O atom...

Description
Summary:The title complex, [Al2(CH3)4(C13H10N3O)2], is dimeric, bridged through the O atoms of the phenolate anions. The asymmetric unit contains one half of the molecule and there is a crystallographic inversion centre in this molecule. Each Al atom is pentacoordinated by one N atom and two bridging O atoms of two N,O-bidentate benzotriazolylphenolate ligands and by two C atoms from two methyl groups, forming a distorted trigonal–bipyramidal environment.
