The ionic hydride of an alkali metal which has a significant covalent character and is almost unreactive towards oxygen and chlorine at moderate temperatures is, lithium hydride is unreactive. That is why it is used for the synthesis of other useful hydrides.

Its reaction to $Al_{2}Cl_{6}$ can be explained as follows: -

$8LiH + Al_{2}Cl_{6} \rightarrow 2LiAlH_{4} + 6LiCl$
