I have added some basic stuff re monomer, dimer, structure, Lewis acid properties, possible application of adducts in MOCVD. However this article IMHO is still a way off A class.

On a point of detail I am not happy with the battery reference - it is nigh on 30 years old and I would be surprised if alane was still a candidate for H2 storage. Perhaps someone could confirm this.Axiosaurus (talk) 15:43, 9 December 2007 (UTC)

Hey, i'm just thrilled it's gotten this far. I started it with about 3 sentences. Pi.1415926535 (talk) 17:07, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

Synthesis
It says that the "dissolving process of aluminium trichloride requires the addition of 0.5-4 mol equivalents of borohydride salt, which is very expensive and not recovered"... That doesn't make any sense. First I don't understand why a borohydride salt would be needed, and secondly borohydrides are not expensive. In fact sodium borohydride is much much cheaper than the lithium aluminumhydride needed in the reaction.130.225.102.1 (talk) 12:44, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
