In the tetra­nuclear title compound, [Al4(C3H7O)12], one Al atom is six-coordinate, with an octa­hedral coordination geometry, whereas the other three are four-coordinate with tetra­hedral geometries. Two of the three symmetry-independent Al atoms lie on special positions of site symmetry 2.

Comment top

Some achiral metal-organic compounds crystallize in one of the eleven pairs of enantiomorphic space groups; however, examples of the same compound belonging to one of each pair are rare. There is a short comment on such examples (Ng, 2007).

Related literature top

The crystal structure of the title compound was first described in the enantiomorphic space group P41212 [Amma (1963); see Folting et al. (1991), Turova et al. (1979) and Turova et al. (1978) for later reports]. For a comment on the occurrence of compounds crystallizing in pairs of enantiomorphic space groups, see Ng (2007).

Experimental top

The aluminium isopropoxide was an unexpected product from reaction of trimethyl aluminium (0.72 g, 0.01 mmol; 5 ml of 2M solution in toluene) and 1-methoxy-2-propanol (0.1 mol, 7.2 g, 10 ml). The solid obtained after removing the excess 1-methoxy-2-propanol under reduced pressure was recrystallized from mixture of hexane and dichloromethane (1:1).

Refinement top

Hydrogen atoms were placed in calculated positions (C–H 0.96 – 0.98 Å), and were included in refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2 to 1.5 times Ueq(C).
