Crystal data for a new molecular addition compound, triphenyllead(IV) chloride–hexamethylphosphoramide

Abstract

Colourless crystals of (C6H5)3PbCl.[(CH3)2N]3PO have been grown by mixing the two components in acetone solution, in which the complex is monomeric. They were recrystallized from acetone or benzene. Precession and Weissenberg photographs yield space group P21/n and cell data, at 20°C: a = 18.35 (6), b = 15.62 (5), c = 9.43 (5) Å, β = 93°30′ (10′), Z = 4. Dm = 1.50 (2), 20°C.
