  2. Lead (IV) acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead(IV)_acetate

    Lead(IV) acetate or lead tetraacetate is an metalorganic compound with chemical formula Pb(C 2 H 3 O 2) 4. It is a colorless solid that is soluble in nonpolar, organic solvents, indicating that it is not a salt. It is degraded by moisture and is typically stored with additional acetic acid. The compound is used in organic synthesis. [2]

  3. Criegee oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criegee_oxidation

    The Criegee oxidation is a glycol cleavage reaction in which vicinal diols are oxidized to form ketones and aldehydes using lead tetraacetate. It is analogous to the use of periodate (Malaprade reaction) but uses a milder oxidant. This oxidation was discovered by Rudolf Criegee and coworkers and first reported in 1931 using ethylene glycol as ...

    Tarnished lead (left) and shiny lead (right) Compounds of lead exist with lead in two main oxidation states: +2 and +4. The former is more common. Inorganic lead(IV) compounds are typically strong oxidants or exist only in highly acidic solutions. [1] Red α-PbO and yellow β-PbO The mixed valence oxide Pb 3 O 4 Black PbO 2 which is a strong ...

  5. Barton reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barton_reaction

    This lack of tight radical pairing is also supported by the observation that alkyl radicals generated by Barton conditions can undergo radical cyclization while analogous intermediates generated by lead tetraacetate oxidation do not. [13] In rare cases, it appears that the alkoxyl radical may epimerize before hydrogen atom abstraction. [14]

  6. Marcus theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marcus_theory

    In outer sphere redox reactions no bonds are formed or broken; only an electron transfer (ET) takes place. A quite simple example is the Fe 2+ /Fe 3+ redox reaction, the self exchange reaction which is known to be always occurring in an aqueous solution containing the aquo complexes [Fe(H 2 O) 6] 2+ and [Fe(H 2 O)6] 3+.

  7. Heterogeneous water oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterogeneous_Water_Oxidation

    Water splitting can be done at higher pH values as well however the standard potentials will vary according to the Nernst equation and therefore shift by -59 mV for each pH unit increase. However, the total cell potential (difference between oxidation and reduction half cell potentials) will remain 1.23 V.

  8. Organolead chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organolead_chemistry

    Organolead compounds can be derived from Grignard reagents and lead chloride. For example, methylmagnesium chloride reacts with lead chloride to tetramethyllead, a water-clear liquid with boiling point 110 °C and density 1.995 g/cm 3. Reaction of a lead(II) source with sodium cyclopentadienide gives the lead metallocene, plumbocene.

  9. Lead(II) acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead(II)_acetate

    Lead(II) acetate is a white crystalline chemical compound with a slightly sweet taste. Its chemical formula is usually expressed as Pb(CH 3 COO) 2 or Pb(OAc) 2, where Ac represents the acetyl group. Like many other lead compounds, it causes lead poisoning. Lead acetate is soluble in water and glycerin.
