Linear-chain bis(-O,O'-dimethyl dithiophosphato)lead(II)

T. Ito and Y. Maeda

Abstract: The title compound, [Pb(C₂H₆O₂PS₂)₂], has a twofold rotation axis passing through the Pb atom along the b axis. One of the two unique S atoms in a formula unit and its symmetry-equivalent S atom bridge two adjacent Pb atoms, forming a polymeric linear chain along the c axis. The Pb atom is coordinated by six S atoms in a distorted octahedral arrangement. The six Pb-S distances are in the range 2.860 (2)-3.145 (2) Å, with an average of 3.01 (8) Å.
