Contributions to the Chemistry of Organo-Transition Metal Compounds. 47. Reactions of Hexachlorocerates(IV) with Organolithium Compounds Pyridinium hexachlorocerate(IV) reacts with lithium organyls RLi RLi (R = 1-Nor, (CH₃)₂NCH₂CH₂CH₂, n-C₄H₉) in the molar ratio 1:2 with formation of Li₂[CeCl₆] · 2 NC₅H₅. A further mol RLi effects a reduction to Li₃[CeCl₆] · 2 NC₅H₅. With an excess of RLi amidocerium(III) complexes of the typ Li₄ are formed. Li₂[CeCl₆] is formed also at reactions of quartery ammonium salts, e. g. [C₆H₅CH₂N(C₂H₅)₃]₂[CeCl₆], with RLi (R = 1-Nor, Me₂₂NCH₂CH₂CH₂) followed by an reduction to Li₃[CeCl₆]. An excess of the lithium organyl effects the formation Li₄[RCeCl₆] complexes. The yielded compounds were characterized by elementary analysis, the hydrolysis and deuterolysis products, magnetic moments, and IR-spectra.
