The reaction of <i>t</i>Bu<sub>2</sub>P(O)H with Bis<sub>2</sub>AlH (Bis = CH(SiMe<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>) afforded the adduct <i>t</i>Bu<sub>2</sub>P(H)-O-Al(H)Bis<sub>2</sub> (3). It slowly releases H<sub>2</sub> to form the first oxygen-bridged geminal Al/P frustrated Lewis pair <i>t</i>Bu<sub>2</sub>P-O-AlBis<sub>2</sub>. It is capable of reversibly binding molecular hydrogen to afford 3, shown by NMR and H/D scrambling experiments, and forms a 1,2-adduct with CO<sub>2</sub>. Importantly, ...[more]
