Abstract
Poly(4-vinyl pyridine) is used as a polymeric ligand to react with metal alkyls, MenM (n = 3, M = Al, Ga or In; n = 2, M = Cd or Zn) to form adducts. The adducts are characterized by solid state 13C NMR, infrared spectroscopy, microanalyses and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). All the adducts are nonpyrophoric and thermally dissociable, so they may have potential both for use in adduct purification processes or for use as safer metal alkyl sources for Metal–Organic Chemical Vapor Deposition.
