Trimethylaluminum

Description:
Trimethylaluminum (TMA) is an organoaluminum compound with the chemical formula Al(CH₃)₃. It is a colorless, flammable liquid at room temperature and is known for its highly reactive nature, particularly with moisture and air, forming aluminum oxide and methane upon contact with water. TMA is a strong Lewis acid and is often used as a reagent in organic synthesis and as a catalyst in polymerization processes, particularly in the production of polyolefins. Its reactivity makes it useful in the production of aluminum-containing compounds and in the semiconductor industry for the deposition of aluminum films. Due to its flammability and reactivity, TMA must be handled with caution, typically under inert atmospheres to prevent unwanted reactions. Additionally, it is important to note that TMA can pose health hazards, including respiratory irritation and potential toxicity, necessitating appropriate safety measures during handling and storage.
