The PbIV atom of the anion of the title salt, (C7H11N2)2[PbBr4(C6H5)2], is situated on a crystallographic center of inversion and exhibits a tetragonally compressed octahedral coordination. One of the two independent Br atoms acts as a hydrogen-bond acceptor towards the NH group of the cation.
Tetraphenyllead (1.55 g, 3 mmol) and 4-dimethylaminopyridinium hydrobromide perbromide (1.1 g, 3 mmol) were heated in chloroform (100 ml) for 3 h. The filtered solution when allowed to evaporate yielded large colorless crystals.
Carbon-bound H-atoms were placed in calculated positions (C—H 0.95 to 0.98 Å) and were included in the refinement in the riding model approximation, with U(H) set to 1.2 to 1.5Ueq(C). The ammonium H atom was similarly constrained (N–H 0.88 Å).
The difference Fourier map had large peaks/deep holes near the lead atom.

In an earlier study, the tin-alkyl and one tin-aryl bond of an alkyltriphenyltin compound could be cleaved by 4-dimethylaminopyridine hydrobromide perbromide to form bis(4-dimethylaminopyridinium) tetrabromidodiphenylstannate (Yap et al., 2008). In the present study, the organic reagent similarly cleaves two lead-carbon bonds to afford the corresponding plumbate (Scheme I, Fig. 1). The two compounds are isostructural.
