It can react with Lewis bases, a group of chemicals.
It forms adducts with a variety of Lewis bases.
Simplest are those that react directly with the Lewis base.
Other common Lewis bases include pyridine and its derivatives.
It has a high donor number, making it a strong Lewis base.
Metathesis reactions may be carried out with strong Lewis bases.
There is reason to believe that this central atom is an amine which functions as a Lewis base.
A Lewis base is a substance that gives two electrons in the bonding.
When the Lewis bases is an amines, adducts are also formed.
