Abstract

Abstract An oligomer N-alkyl-iminoalane, made up of a plurality of four and/or six member rings of the formulae: ##STR1## wherein R is an aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aromatic hydrocarbon combined in a tridimensional cage structure having the chemical composition (HAl-NR) n , in which R has the above meaning and n is a whole number lower than or equal to 10, is prepared by reacting a primary amine containing a secondary or tertiary carbon atom in alpha or beta position with respect to the amine nitrogen atom or amide derivative thereof wherein the amine radical contains a secondary or tertiary carbon atom in alpha or beta position with respect to the nitrogen atom with a complex formed by AlH 3 and a Lewis base, or by reacting said primary amine with an alkali or alkaline-earth metal alanate.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 9
Claim 1
Independent Claim 66 words
An oligomer N-alkyl-iminoalane consisting of a plurality of four and/or six membered rings of the formula: ##STR3## in which R is selected from the group consisting of iso-propyl, sec-butyl, iso-butyl, tert-butyl and cyclo-butyl, combined to form a tridimensional cage structure having the chemical composition (HAlNR) n in which R has the meaning given above, and n is a whole number lower than or equal to 10.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 66 words
An oligomer N-alkyl-iminoalane consisting of a plurality of four and/or six membered rings of the formula: ##STR3## in which R is selected from the group consisting of iso-propyl, sec-butyl, iso-butyl, tert-butyl and cyclo-butyl, combined to form a tridimensional cage structure having the chemical composition (HAlNR) n in which R has the meaning given above, and n is a whole number lower than or equal to 10.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 42 words
The process of preparing an oligomer N-alkyliminoanale as claimed in claim 1, which consists of reacting a primary amine selected from the group consisting of iso-propyl-amine, sec-butyl-amine, iso-butyl-amine, tert-butyl-amine, and cyclo-butyl-amine, with a complex formed by AlH 3 and a Lewis base.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 34 words
The process of preparing an iminolane as claimed in claim 1, which consists in reacting an alkali alanate with a primary amine selected from the group consisting of iso-propyl-amine, sec-butyl-amine, iso-butyl-amine, tert-butyl-amine, and cyclo-butyl-amine.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 46 words
The process of preparing an oligomer N-alkyl-iminoalane as claimed in claim 1 wherein the reaction is carried out in the presence of a member of the group consisting of the hydrocarbon solvents, ether solvents and solvents containing no functional group able to react with hydride hydrogen.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim 34 words
The process of preparing an oligomer N-alkyl-iminoalane as claimed in claim 1, wherein the reaction is carried out in the temperature range of from -20° C to the dissociation temperature of said oligomer N-alkyl-iminolane.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim 33 words
The process of preparing an oligomer N-alkyl-iminoalane as claimed in claim 4, wherein the reaction is carried out at the boiling temperature of the solvent for a period of at least 20 hours.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim 46 words
The process of preparing an oligomer N-alkyl-iminoalane as claimed in claim 4, wherein the reaction is carried out by replacing the reaction solvent with a higher boiling solvent and heating the reaction mixture to the boiling temperature thereof for a period of at least 20 hours.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim 18 words
The process as claimed in claim 3, wherein the alkali alanate is NaAlH 4 or LiAlH 4 .
