Bis( o ‐xylene)lead(II) bis(tetrachloroaluminate), obtained from lead(II) chloride and aluminium trichloride in o ‐xylene, has been shown by X‐ray crystallography to be a mononuclear lead complex with point group symmetry C 2 The two aromatic ligands are arranged similarly to those in monomeric plumbocene. The coordination sphere is completed by two bidentate AlCl 4 − ions. The lead center uses about a quarter of its bonding capability for each of the four ligands
