Talk:Diethylaluminium chloride

Unrelated references
There are many references in this article is talking about other related compounds, not (C2H5)2AlCl. Reference [2] is about C2H5AlCl2, reference [3] is about (CH3)2AlCl, and reference [4] is about (C4H9)2AlCl. Nucleus hydro elemon (talk) 08:58, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
 * In chemistry, we rely on analogies to similar or even isoelectronic compounds to describe bonding and structure. Sometimes this analogy method is necessitated because some derivatives are unsuitable for structural analysis by X-ray crystallography. Usually when the change in substituent is modest, say methyl and ethyl, these analogies are very useful. So one can assume that the structure of Me2AlCl will be closely related to Et2AlCl.  But I will try re-address the language in this article so that nonchemists can better understand what is going on here.--Smokefoot (talk) 22:18, 25 January 2024 (UTC)
