title: Soluble, reactive and stable - unique aluminosilicate ligands and a heterobimetallic derivative [LAl(SLi)(micro-O)Si(OLi.2thf)(OtBu)2]2.
abstract: The heterobimetallic aluminosilicate [LAl(SLi)(micro-O)Si(OLi.2thf)(O(t)Bu)(2)](2) was prepared from the LAl(SH)(micro-O)Si(OH)(O(t)Bu)(2) (L = [HC{C(Me)N(Ar)}(2)](-), Ar = 2,6-di-(i)Pr(2)C(6)H(3)) ligand, which can also be hydrolyzed to LAl(OH.thf)(micro-O)Si(OH)(O(t)Bu)(2)- leading to the first aluminosilicate-dihydroxide soluble in organic solvents.
