The invention relates to a method for the preparation of toluene solutions of aluminum hydride, which is free of ethers and halides, characterized in that the complex, bound magnesium halide portion is precipitated and removed from halogen magnesium aluminum hydridohalides, which optionally are present in tetrahydrofuran (THF) solutions, of the general formula(Mg2X3(THF)y)+(AlH3X)-wherein X is chlorine, bromine or iodine Y is a number from 0 to 6, by the consecutive addition of hexane and toluene with successive removal by distillation of hexane and optionally of THF at boiling temperatures up to 90 DEG C. Solutions of aluminum hydride in toluene are obtained, which can be used directly for reductions or yield solid aluminum hydride after removal of the solvent.
