Thesis
Installing and understanding group-13 x-type metallo-ligands
- Abstract:
-
This thesis describes synthetic, spectroscopic and computational efforts to access and understand metal complexes of the trielyl ligands, i.e. X-type ligands for the form EX2 - , where E is a group 13 element in the +1 oxidation state. In particular, this thesis focusses on understanding aluminyl ligands (E = Al). Such compounds receive much attention in the current literature, as the electropositive nature of aluminium renders aluminyl ligands highly electron donating. Such properties are be...
