The paper discusses several attempts to reduce bulky carbazolyl diiodoalane, revealing the effects of different reducing agents and observing various reaction outcomes.
We report details of our attempts to reduce the bulky carbazolyl diiodoalane [R-AlI2]. The reducing agents employed include KC8, Cp*Co-2 and the Mg(i) compound [((BDI)-B-Mes)Mg](2). The use of KC8 allowed the spectroscopic observation of the alanediyl [R-Al]. With Cp*Co-2 as the reducing agent, the alanediyl [R-Al] was obtained as a crystalline material in low yield, but paramagnetic impurities remained. When diiodoalane [R-AlI2] was treated with [((BDI)-B-Mes)Mg](2), no reduction but a 2 : 1 addition was observed.
