Decomposition of organolead compounds in aqueous systems

Organolead compounds are generally more toxic than inorganic lead compounds and if stable in water could be harmful to aquatic and higher species. The effect of a number of natural catalysts on the breakdown of lead alkyls in aqueous media was studied to evaluate the possible environmental impact of...

Zusammenfassung:	Organolead compounds are generally more toxic than inorganic lead compounds and if stable in water could be harmful to aquatic and higher species. The effect of a number of natural catalysts on the breakdown of lead alkyls in aqueous media was studied to evaluate the possible environmental impact of these materials. It was found that sunlight and various anions and cations promote the breakdown of organoleads in aqueous media.
