Aluminium nitride (Al N) is a solid nitride of aluminium. It has a high thermal conductivity of up to 321 W/(m·K) [ 5 ] and is an electrical insulator. Its wurtzite phase (w-AlN) has a band gap of ~6 eV at room temperature and has a potential application in optoelectronics operating at deep ultraviolet frequencies.
When hydrated aluminium nitrate reacts with dinitrogen pentoxide it forms a nitronium salt: [NO 2] + [Al(NO 3) 4] −. [2]A way to make a tetranitratoaluminate salt of a cation is to treat the chloride of the cation and aluminium chloride with liquid dinitrogen tetroxide pure or dissolved in nitromethane.
Aluminium oxynitride (marketed under the name ALON by Surmet Corporation [3]) is a transparent ceramic composed of aluminium, oxygen and nitrogen. Aluminium oxynitride is optically transparent (≥80% for 2 mm thickness) in the near-ultraviolet , visible, and mid-wave- infrared regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
Titanium nitride (TiN; sometimes known as tinite) is an extremely hard ceramic material, often used as a physical vapor deposition (PVD) coating on titanium alloys, steel, carbide, and aluminium components to improve the substrate's surface properties.
Aluminium nitrate cannot be synthesized by the reaction of aluminium with concentrated nitric acid, as the aluminium forms a passivation layer. Aluminium nitrate may instead be prepared by the reaction of nitric acid with aluminium(III) chloride. Nitrosyl chloride is produced as a by-product; it bubbles out of the solution as a gas.
The allylic rearrangement reaction carried out using aluminium hydride is a S N 2 reaction, and it is not sterically demanding: [1] Phosphine reduction using aluminium hydride. Aluminium hydride will reduce carbon dioxide to methane with heating: [citation needed] 4 AlH 3 + 3 CO 2 → 3 CH 4 + 2 Al 2 O 3
Aluminium carbide is prepared by direct reaction of aluminium and carbon in an electric arc furnace. [3] 4 Al + 3 C → Al 4 C 3. An alternative reaction begins with alumina, but it is less favorable because of generation of carbon monoxide. 2 Al 2 O 3 + 9 C → Al 4 C 3 + 6 CO. Silicon carbide also reacts with aluminium to yield Al 4 C 3.
Tris(8-hydroxyquinolinato)aluminium is the chemical compound with the formula Al(C 9 H 6 NO) 3. Widely abbreviated Alq 3 , it is a coordination complex wherein aluminium is bonded in a bidentate manner to the conjugate base of three 8-hydroxyquinoline ligands .
