Lead Tetraacetate is a metal salt with various chemical and other market applications. It is extensively used as a highly selective oxidizing agent in organic synthesis. The compound is also used in the oxidation of glycols and converts the same into aldehydes. It also finds its application in the synthesis of cyclohexyl acetate and other compounds such as oxalic acid. Moreover, it is widely used in oxidative cleavage reactions of 1,2-diols, α-hydroxy ketones, 1,2-diketones, or α-hydroxy acids.

The demand for Lead Tetraacetate is predominantly driven by its application as an oxidizing agent in various chemical reactions, which contributes to its demand in the chemical industry. Its involvement in the preparation of various chemical compounds, including cyclohexyl acetate and oxalic acid, further enhances its demand in the chemical manufacturing industry. Overall, the availability of raw materials (acetic acid, etc.), their cost, pricing, supplier relationships, quality standards, sustainability practices, and logistics serve as major factors that largely influence industrial Lead Tetraacetate procurement.

Raw Material for Lead Tetraacetate Production

According to the Lead Tetraacetate manufacturing plant project report, the major raw materials for Lead Tetraacetate production include Lead Oxide-Acetic Acid-Acetic Anhydride.

Manufacturing Process of Lead Tetraacetate

The extensive Lead Tetraacetate production cost report consists of the following industrial manufacturing process:

• Production from Lead Oxide: This method of production involves the use of lead oxide, acetic acid, and acetic anhydride as the major starting materials for the synthesis of lead tetraacetate. The process is initiated by dissolving lead oxide in acetic acid, followed by heating and adding acetic anhydride to obtain lead tetraacetate as the final product of the reaction.

Lead Tetraacetate is a pink crystalline chemical with a vinegar-like odor. It has a complex molecular structure consisting of eight carbon, twelve hydrogen, eight oxygen, and four lead atoms. Its chemical formula is given by Pb(C2H3O2)4. Its molecular weight is 443.38 g/mol. It is a metal acetate with a melting point of approximately 175-180°C and a boiling point of nearly 118.1°C.

The compound is non-flammable and is soluble in various chemical solvents, including hot glacial acetic acid, benzene, and chloroform. Similarly, it can also be dissolved in nitrobenzene and tetrachloroethane. Its density is given by 2.23 g/cm3 at 20 °C. It is an air-sensitive chemical that remains unstable. It rapidly decomposes when heated or under fire conditions. It emits toxic oxides of carbon and lead metal in the air while decomposing. It is a corrosive chemical that can corrode materials such as metals in the presence of moisture. It can dissolve easily in concentrated halogen acids that generate halo plumbic acids as the resulting product.
