Abstract: | Reactions of organometal compounds. VI. Formation of Trichloroplumbates(II) by decomposition of dimethyl lead dichloride in pyridine and its homologues (CH3)2PbCl2 disproportionates in pyridine, 2-methylpyridine and quinoline solution to give (CH3)2PbCl and – as a result of the decomposition of the second disproportionation product CH3PbCl3 in the presence of the bases – the trichloroplumbates(II) of the N-methylated bases: C5H5N · CH3]PbCl3], C6G7N · CH3]PbCl3] and C9H7N · CH3] · PbCl3]. N-methylpyridinium-trichloroplumbate(II) crystallizes orthorhombic, space group Pna21 or Pnma. |
