Application

Ethylaluminum dichloride is a strong Lewis acid and a proton scavenger that can be used:
  • To catalyze polymerization of isobutylene.
  • To facilitate Diels-Alder reaction of α,β-unsaturated esters.
  • To carry out Pinacol reduction rearrangements.
  • To promote Schmidt rearrangement of diketoazides in the synthesis of indolizidines and pyrroloazepinediones.
