TCI A0245 Aluminum Ethoxide is a metal alkoxide formed from aluminum and ethanol, widely known as a reagent and precursor in both inorganic and organic chemistry. In the TCI catalog it is classified as a metallic salt within the Catalysis and Inorganic Chemistry category. In the laboratory, it is mainly used as a catalyst or reagent in hydride-transfer reactions, and as a source of aluminum for preparing alumina-based materials through solution routes. The 250 g pack gives research groups a practical quantity for repeated work without frequent reordering.
The most important characteristic of aluminum alkoxides is their sensitivity to water. Compounds of this type react with moisture to form aluminum hydroxide or oxide and release ethanol, a behavior that is deliberately exploited in sol-gel processes to produce alumina. At the same time, the Lewis acidity of the aluminum center makes the compound active in several catalytic reactions, including the Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction and the Oppenauer oxidation, both well established in organic synthesis. For this reason, it is chosen for work that requires a soluble or readily dispersible aluminum catalyst.
In Indonesia, this 250 g pack from TCI suits laboratories in materials research, organic chemistry, and catalysis that work with moisture-sensitive reagents under controlled conditions. University research groups, industrial R&D teams, and technical laboratories can use it for method development, catalyst screening, and the preparation of alumina precursors. AMI Scientific supplies this product to customers who need a recognized brand with a clearly identified CAS number for documentation and procurement.

- Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction: the Lewis acidic aluminum center helps transfer hydride from an alcohol to a ketone or aldehyde, giving a selective route to the corresponding alcohol.
- Oppenauer oxidation: aluminum ethoxide can act as the catalyst for converting secondary alcohols into ketones, because it activates the carbonyl acceptor and supports the hydride-transfer step.
- Sol-gel preparation of alumina: the controlled reaction of the alkoxide with water releases ethanol and forms aluminum hydroxide or oxide networks, which suits the synthesis of alumina-based materials.
- Precursor for aluminum-containing materials: as a source of aluminum in solution, it allows researchers to introduce aluminum into coatings, powders, or mixed-oxide systems in a controlled way.
- Catalyst screening in organic synthesis: its solubility and dispersibility in organic media make it convenient for comparing aluminum-based catalysts in method development and small-scale reaction studies.

Because aluminum ethoxide reacts with moisture, keep it in its original tightly closed container, stored in a cool, dry place away from water, acids, and sources of ignition. Where possible, open and dispense it in a dry atmosphere, such as a glove box or under inert gas, and reseal the container promptly after each use. Use dry glassware and dry solvents to avoid premature hydrolysis. Wear suitable gloves, safety glasses, and a laboratory coat, and work in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. Always consult the manufacturer's safety data sheet before use, and dispose of waste in accordance with laboratory and local regulations.
