Hydrothermal Synthesis and Crystal Structure of a Lead(Ⅱ) Polymer with a Two-dimensional Network Structure:[Pb_2(PDB)_2(phen)]_n·nH_2O

A new metal-organic complex Pb2(PDB)2(phen)]n·nH2O (H2PDB=pyridine-3,4-dicarboxylic acid,phen=1,10-phenanthroline) 1 has been hydrothermally synthesized and structurally characterized by elemental analysis,IR spectrum,TG and single-crystal X-ray diffraction.The compound crystallizes in triclinic,space group P1 with a=7.2472(5),b=10.6966(8),c=16.2376(12),α=98.2960(10),β=91.6430(10),γ=97.4810(10)o,V=1233.53(16)3,C26H16O9N4Pb2,Mr=942.81,Dc=2.538 g/cm3,μ(MoKα)=13.697 mm-1,F(000)=872,Z=2,the final R=0.0247 and wR=0.0654 for 3886 observed reflections (I 2σ(I)).In the crystal structure,the Pb(1) atom is six-coordinated with four carboxylate oxygen atoms from three different PDB ligands and two nitrogen atoms from phen ligand,showing a distorted octahedral geometry;the Pb(2) atom is four-coordinated with four carboxylate oxygen atoms from four different PDB ligands,showing a distorted tetrahedral geometry.It exhibits a three-dimensional supramolecular network structure formed by hydrogen bonds and π-π interactions.
