Tris(quinolin-8-olato)gallium(III)

M. Rajeswaran and V. V. Jarikov

Abstract: The title compound (GaQ₃), [Ga(C₉H₆NO)₃], is the Ga analog of the most widely used organic light-emitting diode (OLED) material, AlQ₃. Its molecular structure is a six-coordinated gallium compound, with the angles around the Ga³⁺ ion indicating approximate octahedral geometry. There is intermolecular - stacking of the ligands (8-hydroxyquinolines) in a multidirectional fashion.
