Abstract

The molecular structure of (tBu)3Al[O=C(OPh)2] has been determined. The increase in the C=O bond distance [1.258(4) Å] when compared to free O=C(OPh)2 [1.191(3) Å], is presented in respect to the activating ability of aluminum Lewis acids. Crystal data: monoclinic, P21/n, a = 10.653(2), b = 18.486(4), c = 14.551(3) Å, β = 108.07(3)°, and V = 2724.3(9) Å3 for Z = 4.
