Abstract
[(SalpanAl)Li(THF)(2)](2) (1) and [(SalomphanAl)Li(THF)(2)](2) (2) are two members of a new class of aluminum anion with metal-ligand stoich iometries of 1:1. Both compounds were spectroscopically and structural ly characterized. In 1 (shown) the dihedral angles for the two AlLiO2 planes with respect to the central Al2N2 plane are +50.0 degrees (for Al(1) and -53.2 degrees (for Al(2)). This ''twist'' gives the molecule helical chirality.
