Abstract

In the title compound, [Al(C(6)H(5))(3)(C(4)H(8)O)], the Al atom has a distorted tetra-hedral geometry. The C-Al-C angles range from 113.25 (7) to 116.27 (8)°, much larger than the O-Al-C angles, which range from 103.39 (7) to 103.90 (6)°. The tetra-hydro-furan ring adopts an envelope conformation. The crystal packing is stabilized by C-H⋯π inter-actions.
