Abstract
The synthesis of the hitherto unknown compound Rb3PbCl5 in the quasi-binary system RbCl/PbCl2 and its structure determination is reported. This 3:1-ph ase decomposes peritectoidally at 305 degrees C and crystallizes in a so fa r unknown structure type in the orthorhombic space group Pnma (a = 863.498( 5) pm, b = 1573.11(1) pm, c = 838.875(5) pm). It shows typical structural c haracteristics of ns(2)-configurated cations, although there are more noble gas-configurated cations than ns(2)-configurated cations in the structure.
