Conclusions
-
1.
Alkylaluminum halides of the types R2A1C1, RAlCl2, and R2AlBr react with CO2 to form carboxylic acids.
-
2.
The kinetics of the carboxylation of higher R2AlCl with different alkyl chain lengths have been studied at 110–146°C.
-
3.
The possibility of jointly preparing carboxylic acids and aliphatic alcohols from R2AlCl with quantitative utilization of both Al-C bonds has been demonstrated.
