Basic Information
Product Name: Lithium tri-tert-butoxyaluminum hydride
Molecular Formula: C12H27AlLiO3
Molecular Weight: 250.26
CAS Number: 17476-04-9
Physical and Chemical Properties
Appearance: Usually a white to off-white powder or granular solid, highly hygroscopic and sensitive to air and moisture.
Melting Point: Approximately 178-180°C (decomposes).
Solubility: Soluble in aprotic organic solvents such as diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran (THF); reacts violently with water, generating hydrogen gas and releasing substantial heat.
Chemical Characteristics: A strong reducing agent with selective reducing ability, commonly used in organic synthesis for the reduction of specific functional groups (e.g., esters, amides, nitriles).
Applications
Organic Synthesis:
Selective Reduction: Prefers to reduce functional groups such as esters, amides, nitriles, and acid anhydrides, while showing lower reactivity toward aldehydes and ketones (requires specific conditions). Suitable for the reduction of specific groups in complex molecules.
Pharmaceutical Synthesis: Used in the preparation of pharmaceutical intermediates, such as antibiotics and hormones.
Fine Chemicals: Serves as a key reducing agent in the synthesis of pesticides, fragrances, and polymer materials.
Research Field: Applied in laboratories to study the mechanisms of selective reduction reactions and develop new synthetic methods.
Hazards:
Reacts violently with water and moist air, releasing flammable hydrogen gas, which may cause fire or explosion.
Dust can irritate the respiratory tract, eyes, and skin.
Safety Precautions:
Handle in a well-ventilated fume hood, wearing protective gloves, goggles, and a lab coat.
Avoid contact with water, moisture, and oxidizing agents.
In case of fire, use dry sand or Class D fire extinguishers; do not use water or carbon dioxide extinguishers.
Storage:
Store in a cool, dry, airtight container, away from heat sources and moisture. Keep in a nitrogen or argon atmosphere to prevent degradation.
