Abstract

Tetra-alkyl lead compounds are prepared by reacting an alkylating agent with lead and free metallic magnesium in the presence of a catalyst, said alkylating agent comprising one or more esters of inorganic acids having the desired alkyl group attached to the negative radical, and said catalyst being one or more organic compounds selected from the group comprising ethers, cyclic ethers, tertiary amines and substituted ammonium salts. The lead may be in the form of an alloy, e.g. with alkali or alkaline earth metals or with magnesium. The alkylating agent may be an alkyl chloride, bromide, iodide or phosphate, e.g. an alkyl halide containing not more than 10 carbon atoms. Catalysts that may be used include alkyl and aralkyl ethers, tetra-alkylammonium and aralkylammonium iodides and trialkyl- and triaralkyl-amines. The reaction is preferably carried out at a temperature within the range of 45 DEG to 85 DEG C. for from 1/2 hour to 6 hours. The ratio by weight of magnesium to lead may be between 1/100 and 30/100. The ratio by weight of catalyst to magnesium may be between 8/1 and 1/20. The alkylating agent may be employed in excess over the stoichiometric amount. The lead used in the above process may be obtained from a process wherein both tetraalkyl lead and free lead are formed, e.g. a two-stage process may be used wherein free lead and tetra-alkyl lead are formed from the reaction of an alkali metal-lead alloy and an alkylating agent and the free lead so formed is reacted in accordance with the above process to form more tetra-alkyl lead. A number of examples are given.
