Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1 : 1 adducts of (7R*,14R*)-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (' tet -b') with a variety of lead(II) salts. [( tet -b)PbCl2] is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 7.183(3), b 12.425(2), c 24.418(2) Ǻ, β 95.32(3)°, Z = 4; conventional R on |F| was 0.044 for 3188 independent, 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. [( tet -b)PbI2] is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 19.920(5), b 7.772(5), c 15.605(6) Ǻ, β 108.39(2)°, Z = 4; R 0.051 for No 2507. [( tet -b) Pb (NCS)2] is orthorhombic, P 212121, a 36.99(1), b 8.996(5), c 6.964(3) Ǻ, Z = 4; R 0.043 for No 2100. All are discrete mononuclear [( tet -b)PbX2] entities in which the macrocyclic N4 ligand occupies one 'face' of the N4PbX2 coordination sphere, the thiocyanate ligands being N-bonded, with Pb -N-C angles of 116(2) and 118(1)°; interesting hydrogen-bonding interactions are found, columns of molecules being formed by way of hydrogen bonding between the coordinated (pseudo-)halides and the NH hydrogen atoms which project to the 'rear' face of the ligand of the next molecule, opposite the metal. In contrast to these, the bromide analogue, monoclinic, P21, a 9.342(3), b 12.720(5), c 18.845(5) Ǻ, β 103.17(2)°, Z = 4, R 0.035 for No 3593, is best formulated as [( tet -b) PbBr ] Br, one only of the bromide entities being bound to the lead, the other being fully dissociated by hydrogen bonding/ion pairing to the 'rear' side of adjacent ligands , forming hydrogen-bonded sheets rather than columns. This formulation has been extended to provide a description of an analogous mixed chloride- perchlorate 'double salt', [( tet -b) PbCl ] (ClO4).CH3OH, which is orthorhombic, P 212121, a 19.475(2), b 18.73(1), c 6.820(2) Ǻ, Z = 4, R 0.054 for No 3075. However, another double salt, modelled in refinement as Pb ( tet -b)Cl0.5(ClO4)1.5.H2O, orthorhombic Pnma , a 20.640(5), b 26.16(1), c 8.937(4) Ǻ, Z = 4 dimers , R 0.074 for No 1769, is in this case more appropriately described as [( tet -b) Pb (OClO2O)2Pb( tet -b)] (ClO4) Cl.H2O with perchlorate rather than halide coordinated, and an incipiently dimeric cation, as in the parent [( tet -b) Pb (OClO3)]2 (ClO4)2.2H2O.
Syntheses and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determinations are recorded for 1 : 1 adducts of (1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane) ('cyclam') with lead(II) perchlorate and (7R*,14R*)-5,5,7,12,12,14-hexamethyl-1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane ('tet -b') with lead(II) nitrate, perchlorate and acetate ('ac'). [( cyclam ) Pb (ClO4)2] is orthorhombic, Pb21a, a 16.024(7), b 13.595(4), c 8.6810(5) Ǻ, Z = 4 f.u .; R was 0.055 for No 1318 independent 'observed' (I > 3σ(I)) reflections. [( tet -b) Pb (NO3)2]2 is monoclinic. P 21/a, a 16.15(2), b 14.550(6), c 19.775(2) Ǻ, β 90.86(5)°, Z = 4 dimers ; R 0.074 for No 3184. [( tet -b) Pb (ClO4)2]2.H2O is monoclinic, P 21/c, a 13.663(9), b 9.031(3). c 20.61(1) Ǻ, β 100.40(3)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R 0.044 for No 2857. [( tet -b) Pb (ac)2].2H2O is triclinic, Pī , a 13.138(5), b 10.924(4), c 10.518(3) Ǻ, α 115.48(3), β 91.95(2), γ 102.38(2)°, Z = 2 f.u .; R 0.031 for No 6485. In all complexes, the macrocycle-N4 ligand occupies one 'side' of the coordination sphere of the lead atom, with anionic oxygens opposed; the cyclam/perchlorate complex is, like the nitrate, mononuclear with seven-coordinate (N4)PbO3 with a bidentate O,O'- and a unidentate O- perchlorate . In the tet-b acetate, the anionic oxygen atoms are surprisingly sparse, comprising simply a bidentate acetate in a mononuclear (N4)PbO2 environment with the other (lattice) acetate bonded to the macrocycle axial NH hydrogens . The nitrate and perchlorate complexes involve bridging anions: in the nitrate. a central centrosymmetric PbO2Pb array is found, the lead atoms being bridged by one oxygen of a bidentate nitrate, the other nitrate being unidentate and the coordination sphere (N4)PbO4: in the perchlorate , again a centrosymmetric dimer is found, the lead atoms being linked by O,O'-bridging perchlorates (again with (N4)PbO2 coordination environments), the complex being essentially [( tet -b) Pb (OClO2O)2Pb( tet -b)](ClO4)2H2O. The structure of [cyclamH4]4+ (NO3-)4.2H2O is also recorded [triclinic, Pī , a 8.626(2), b 8.549(1), c 8.400(2) Ǻ, α 80.60(2), β 76.62(2), γ 65.06(1)°, Z = 1; R 0.044 for No 1539], together with that of the diprotonated hexamethyl derivative [tet-bH2]2+(ClO4-)2.CH3OH [monoclinic, P21/c, a 11.296(3), b 8.834(8), c 26.22(1) Ǻ, β 99.05(3)°, Z = 4 f.u .; R 0.063 for No 2583].
