THE CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF LEAD(II) IODIDE-DIMETHYLSULPHOXIDE(1/2), PbI2(dmso)2

Abstract

Abstract The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined by X-ray diffractometry. Two dimethylsulphoxide molecules co-ordinate to the Pb atom through their O atoms in trans position. The skeletal structure is a linear chain of [>Pb〈II〉] unit.
