Aluminum tris (8-hydroxyquinoline) is a complex chemical compound composed of a central aluminum cation to the three 8-hydroxyquinoline ligands coordinated are. The complex is electrically conductive and is used to manufacture organic light-emitting diodes (OLED) and organic solar cells .
properties
The complex of 8-hydroxyquinoline functions as a bidentate chelating ligand and binds on the free electron pairs of the nitrogen and oxygen at the cationic aluminum center.
The complex melts in the temperature range from 413 to 415 ° C.
