New lead coordination compounds were synthesised. Two thiosemicarbazides were used, 4-(2-pyridyl)thiosemicarbazide (L1) and 4-(6-methyl-2-pyridiyl)thiosemicarbazide (L2). Reactions were carried out under the same procedure. Methanol was used as a solvent. The solutions were under reflux. Slow evaporation of solvent was carried out under ambient conditions. Five products (1–5) were isolated.
New products were characterised using single crystal X-ray diffraction. Compounds 1 and 2 are crystal structures of used ligands, respectively. New crystal structure of ligand L1 was formed, which has not yet been characterised in literature. IR and 1H NMR spectra were taken. Crystal structure of ligand L2 has not yet been characterised in literature as well.
Crystal structure of compound 3 with the chemical formula [Pb(L1)4(SCN)2]·2CH3OH was characterised. Central ion is lead(II) ion with coordinated six ligands. Coordination number of lead is eight with distorted dodecahedron structure. Two ligands L1 form a chelate ring through nitrogen and sulphur atoms and two L1 are monodentatly coordinated through sulphur atom. Two thiocyanate ions are coordinated. IR and 1H NMR spectra were taken.
Crystal structure of compound 4 was characterised with the chemical formula [Pb(L1)4(NO3)2]·2CH3OH, similar to crystal structure of compound 3. Six ligands are coordinated to lead(II) central ion with coordination number eight in shape of dodecahedron. Two ligands L1 form a chelate ring through nitrogen and sulphur atoms and two L1 are monodentatly coordinated through sulphur atom. Two nitrate ions are coordinated.
Crystal structure of compound 5 was characterised with the chemical formula [Pb2(L2)6(NO3)2](NO3)2·2H2O. Coordination cation was formed containing two lead(II) ions. Each central ion has three coordinated L2 and one monodentatly coordinated nitrate ligand. Coordination number of each lead(II) ion is eight. Two chelate L2 are also bridging ligands that form a bridge through sulphur atom between both lead(II) ions.
