Abstract | Cited by

A sterically congested NHC–AlMe3 Lewis adduct (NHC = 1,3-di-tert-butylimidazol-2-ylidene) was found to either isomerize to an “abnormal” NHC–AlMe3 species or to be involved in the deprotonation of AlMe3 to form the corresponding imidazolium species along with an AlMe3-stabilized methylene aluminium anion.
