The reaction of(Ar*)(2)GaCl or (Ar*)(2)InCl (Ar* = 2,4,6-t-Bu(3)C(6)H(2)) with LiAlH4 resulted in transmetalation and formation of (Ar*)(2)AlH (6), the first example of a structurally authenticated monomeric base-free aluminum hydride. An. X-ray crystallographic study revealed that the monomeric nature of the new hydride is due to the shielding of the AI-H moiety by o-t-Bu groups of the aryl ligands. Crystal data for 6: space group P2(1)/c, a = 10.024(2) Angstrom, b = 29.745(4) Angstrom, c = 11.459(1) Angstrom, beta = 94.87(1)degrees, V = 3404(2) Angstrom(3), Z = 4. The X-ray crystal structure of (Ar*)(2)InCl (5) has also been determined. Crystal data for 5: space group P2(1)/c, a = 10.328(2) Angstrom, b = 22.924(2) Angstrom, c = 16.091(1) Angstrom, beta = 107.34(1)degrees, V = 3636.6(8) Angstrom(3), Z = 4.
