Syntheses and structures of new diaryl lead(II) compounds PbR2 (1, R = 2,4,6-triphenylphenyl; 2, R = 2,6-bis(1-naphthyl)phenyl).
Reaction of RLi with lead(II) bromide affords the diaryl lead(II) compounds PbR2 (R1 = 2,4,6-triphenylphenyl, 1; R2 = 2,6-bis(1'-naphthyl)phenyl, 2), which have monomeric, carbene-like structures with bent two-coordinate Pb(II) centers.
