Abstract: We continue the analysis of the weak commutativity construction for Lie algebras. This is the Lie algebra $chi(mathfrakg)$ generated by two isomorphic copies $mathfrakg$ and $mathfrak{g}^{psi}$ of a fixed Lie algebra, subject to the relations $[x,x^{psi}]=0$ for all $xinmathfrakg$. In this article we study the ideal $L=L(mathfrakg)$ generated by $x-x^{psi}$ for all $xinmathfrakg$. We obtain an (infinite) presentation for $L$ as a Lie algebra, and we show that in general it cannot be reduced to a finite one. With this in hand, we study the question of nilpotency. We show that if $mathfrakg$ is nilpotent of class $c$, then $chi(mathfrakg)$ is nilpotent of class at most $c+2$, and this bound can improved to $c+1$ if $mathfrakg$ is $2$-generated or if $c$ is odd. We also obtain concrete descriptions of $L(mathfrakg)$ (and thus of $chi(mathfrakg)$) if $mathfrakg$ is free nilpotent of class $2$ or $3$. Finally, using methods of Gr"obner-Shirshov bases we show that the abelian ideal $R(mathfrakg)=[mathfrakg,[L,mathfrak{g}^{psi}]]$ is infinite-dimensional if $mathfrakg$ is free of rank at least $3$.
