We report in this paper the isolation and characterization of novel heterobimetallic Cr/Al complexes based on the PNPN ligand along with an assessment about their relevance as intermediates in the ethane selective trimerization process consisting of CrCl3(THF)3, the aminophosphorus ligands Ph2PN(R)P...
