Nitrogen hydrides lead halides

Of all the reactions studied, only the synthesis of nitrogen oxides and acetylene in arcs or plasma torches and that of ozone in glow and corona discharges are of major importance. In addition, a few small-scale preparations of inorganic compounds have been developed, e.g. synthesis of hydrazine and of hydrides and halides of silicon, germanium, tin, lead, phosphorus or arsenic 3> ... 

Anion displacement of halides with azolyl anions is one common route to azolyl complexes. One example of such a synthesis is shown in Equation 4.21. In other cases, azolyl complexes have been prepared by proton transfer between the free azole and a metal alkox-ide or hydroxide. An example involving the synthesis of palladium-azolyl complexes is shown in Equation 4.22. In some rare cases, reactions of pyrrole and d early metal alkyls also lead to the formation of a metal-nitrogen bond via o-bond metathesis, as shown in Equation 4.23. Finally, several late-transition-metal-azolyl complexes possessing accompanying hydride Hgands have been prepared by N-H activation of pyrrole and other azoles.
