Conclusion
The study presents the crystal structure of a lead(II) complex that exhibits a distorted pentagonal bipyramidal geometry.
Supporting Evidence
- The lead(II) complex was characterized using X-ray crystallography.
- The geometry of the lead atom in the complex is a distorted pentagonal bipyramid.
- Two cupferronate ions and a 1,10-phenanthroline ligand coordinate to the lead atom.
Takeaway
Scientists made a special lead compound using two types of ligands, and they found that it has a unique shape.
Methodology
The compound was synthesized by mixing lead(II) nitrate with cupferron ligand and 1,10-phenanthroline in ethanol, followed by crystal growth.
