“…Compounds of the type MZn(C 2 H 5 ) 4 (M ) Ca, Sr, Ba) also are known. 119 Finally, there are some interesting compounds that contain a [C 2 H 5 Zn] + cation. 120 When a benzene solution containing equimolar amounts of (C 2 H 5 ) 2 Zn, (C 2 H 5 ) 3 Al, the and 1,1,2-cryptand C is prepared, a small dense liquid phase separates that contains C 2 H 5 ZnC + and (C 2 H 5 ) 4 …”
