This paper reports the cleavage of ethyl groups from tetraethyltin by organic acids whose ionization constants range between 10-1 and 10-10. SUMMARY 1. Cleavage reactions of tetraethyltin were studied. 2. The following previously unreported compounds were prepared: triethyltin monochloroacetate, dichloroacetate, ß-naphthyl mercaptide, phenyl mercaptide, n-heptyl mercaptide, and n-hexyl mercaptide.Philadelphia 4, Pennsylvania
