ChemInform Abstract
The title compound is prepared by melting a stoichiometric mixture of RbCl and PbCl2 (≈600 °C, 1 h). Rb3PbCl5 crystallizes in a new orthorhombic structure type, space group Pnma (powder XRD). The compound shows the typical structural features of ns2-configurated cations, although there are more rare gas-configurated cations than ns2-configurated ones in the structure.
