H. Fleischer, S. Parsons and C. R. Pulham

Abstract: Tetramethyllead, [Pb(CH₃)₄], crystallizes in the cubic space group Pa, with the Pb atom and one C atom on a crystallographic threefold axis. The average Pb-C distance is 2.211 (11) Å. The crystal structure is isostructural with that of the Sn analogue, and adopts the SnI₄-type structure.
