Abstract
Lithium aluminum hydride reacts with a tertiary amine to produce an amine alane and Li.sub.3 AlH.sub.6. Lithium values are recycled by reacting Li.sub.3 AlH.sub.6 with aluminum and hydrogen to produce LiAlH.sub.4. Since no metal halide by-product is produced in the first step, it has an advantage over other routes. The amine alane can react with SiF.sub.4 to produce silane and AlF.sub.3.
