Poly[aqua-(μ-pyrazine-2-carboxyl-ato-κN,O:O)(μ-pyrazine-2-carboxyl-ato-κN,O:O')lead(II)].

ABSTRACT: The polymeric structure of the title compound, [Pb(C(5)H(3)N(2)O(2))(2)(H(2)O)](n), is built up from centrosymmetric [Pb(C(5)H(3)N(2)O(2))(2)(H(2)O)](2) dimers, which are bridged by ligand carboxyl-ate O atoms. The Pb(II) ion adopts an irregular PbN(2)O(5) coordination polyhedron; it is chelated by one N,O-bidentate ligand and also bonds to a water O atom. A second N,O-bidentate ligand forms the dimer bridge and another bridging O atom from a nearby dimer also bonds to the Pb(II) ion, leading to layers propagating in (100). A network of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds operates between water O atoms (donors) and carboxyl-ate O atoms (acceptors).
