Where can I find a tabulation of all pairs of distict spectral monochromatic lights that are perceived as achromatic?
First of all, I assume you mean pairs of spectral lights that appear monochromatic when mixed together, in other words additive complementaries. I am not aware of any tabulated sets of complementary wavelengths. There are two reasons for this. One is that there is a large range of chromaticity coordinates that are perceived as achromatic due to chromatic adaptation in our visual system. Thus, the first step in this process is to decide which achromatic chromaticity is of interest. Once that decision is made, the complementary wavelengths are fairly easily computed from either the spectral chromaticities (a straight line through the achromatic point connects complementary wavelengths) or the color matching functions.
