Abstract

Magnesium aluminum isopropoxide coordinates two solvent molecules when crystallized from dimethylformamide yielding the title compound, [Me2NCH(O)]2Mg[(μ-OPri)2Al(OPri)2]2, a potential CVD and sol–gel precursor of spinel, MgAl2O4: monoclinic, P21/c, a = 18.876(3) Å, b = 12.5225(19) Å, c = 18.578(3) Å, β = 108.333(2)°, V = 4168.6(11) Å3, Z = 4, Mg[(μ-OPri)2Al(OPri)2]2.
