摘要
We report synthesis of dibenzoaluminepin as the first aluminepin, an aluminum analogue of borepin and gallepin. This compound contains one molecule of ethereal solvent on the Al atom, which adopts a tetrahedral geometry. The central 7-membered aluminepin ring has a boatlike conformation and was characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction, H-1/C-13 NMR, and DFT studies. In addition, NICS, NBO, and theoretical calculations provide insight into the nature of the bonding and aromaticity of aluminepins.
