Abstract
Abstract The structures of four lead(II) carboxylate complexes, lead(II) formate, lead(II) acetate trihydrate, lead(II) pentafluorobenzoate bis(methanol) solvate, and the lead(II)-EDTA hydrate, Pb2(EDTA)2 3H2O, are described. Lead(II) formate has a three-dimensional polymeric structure, lead(II) acetate trihydrate a chain structure linked by hydrogen-bonding to form parallel sheets, lead(II) pentafluorobenzoate bis(methanol) solvate a linear chain structure, and the lead(II)-EDTA hydrate, a structure comprising both isolated monomeric and dimeric units. In each case, the lead atom is eight-coordinated although with vastly differing stereochemistries, except for the monomeric units in the lead(II)-EDTA complex, which contain seven-coordinated lead.
