Organogallium chemistry is the chemistry of organometallic compounds containing a carbon to gallium (Ga) chemical bond. Despite their high toxicity [citation needed], organogallium compounds have some use in organic synthesis. The compound trimethylgallium is of some relevance to MOCVD as a precursor to gallium arsenide via its reaction with arsine at 700 °C:
Ga(CH3)3 + AsH3 → GaAs + 3CH4
Gallium trichloride is an important reagent for the introduction of gallium into organic compounds.
The main gallium oxidation state is Ga(III), as in all lower group 13 elements (such as aluminium).[1][2]
