A study of bonding in some organoaluminium compounds by 27Al nuclear quadrupole resonance spectroscopy

Abstract
27 Al N.q.r. spectra have been measured for a wide range of monomeric and dimeric aluminium complexes of the type Me3AlX and (R1R2AlX)2. Measurements are also reported for But 3Al, (Me2AlOMe)3, and (Me2AlSMe)n and for 69Ga in trimethylgallium. The results are interpreted in terms of the simple treatment of Townes and Dailey which is shown to account well for all the observed trends. 35Cl, 75As, 121Sb, and 123Sb n.q.r. spectra for the appropriate complexes are also reported. The potential of n.q.r. spectroscopy as a tool in structure determination is stressod.
