A novel polymeric metal halide extended network lead(II)-bromido complex, [(2-amino-5-methylpyridinium) (PbBr3)]n

In ((2-amino-5-methylpyridinium) (PbBr3))n the asymmetric unit comprises a cation (C6H9N2 + ) and half unit of the dimer anion hexabromodiplumbate (Pb2Br6 2− ). The plumbate dianion forms a polymer, and together with the cation repeat sym- metrically to form the extended ((2-amino-5-methylpyridinium) (PbBr3))n structure. The polymeric anion (PbBr3)n n− possesses
