Relative rates are given for the reaction of a model compound, phenacyl chloride, with simple lead carboxylates and actual lead stabilizers. The data suggest that lead stabilization is more complex than previously indicated, with reaction products that are lead double salts, rather than simply lead dichloride. This is rationalized in terms of reactive site coordination to the extended lead stabilizer structure, as opposed to the stabilizer being merely a carrier of PbO.
