Precursor design is the crucial step in tailoring the deposition profile towards a multitude of functional materials. Most commercially available aluminium oxide precursors require high processing temperatures (>500 °C). Herein, we report the tuning of the decomposition profile (200–350 °C) of a range of octahedrally coordinated tris(β‐ketoiminate) aluminium complexes of the type [Al(MeCN(R)CHC=OMe)3], by varying the R substituents in the ligands. The complexes are derived from the reaction of trimethylamine alane (TMAA) and a series of N‐substituted β‐ketoiminate ligands (R‐acnacH, R=Me, Et,iPr, Ph) with varying R‐substituents sizes. When the more sterically encumbered ligand (R=Mes) was used, the Al atom became five‐coordinate, therefore representing the threshold to octahedral coordination around the metal in these type of compounds, which, consequently, lead to a change of decomposition profile. The resulting compounds have been characterised by NMR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, elemental analysis and single crystal X‐ray diffraction. [Al(MeCN(Me)CHC=OMe)3] has been used as a single source precursor for the deposition of Al2O3. Thin films were depositedviaaerosol assisted chemical vapour deposition (AACVD), with toluene as the solvent, and were analysed using SEM, EDX and XPS.
