Lone Pair Functionality in Divalent Lead Compounds
Abstract
The role of the lone pair of electrons of Pb(II) in determining the coordination geometry is analyzed from crystallographic studies and ab initio molecular orbital optimizations. Of particular interest are factors that contribute to the disposition of ligands around the lead with geometries that are (1) holodirected, in which the bonds to ligand atoms are distributed throughout the surface of an encompassing globe, and (2) hemidirect ed, in which the bonds to ligand atoms are directed throughout only part of an encompassing globe, i.e., there is an identifiable void in the distribution of bonds to the ligands. The preferred coordination numbers for lead were found to be 4 for Pb(IV) and 4 and 6 for Pb(II). All Pb(IV) structures in the CSD have a holodirected coordination geometry. Pb(II) compounds are hemidirected for low coordination numbers (2−5) and holodirected for high coordination numbers (9, 10), but for intermediate coordination numbers (6−8), examples of either type of stereochemistry are found. Ab initio molecular orbital studies of gas-phase Pb(II) complexes show that a hemidirected geometry is favored if the ligand coordination number is low, the ligands are hard, and there are attractive interactions between the ligands. In such complexes, the lone pair orbital has p character and fewer electrons are transferred from the ligands to the bonding orbitals of Pb(II), resulting in bonds that are more ionic. A holodirected geometry is favored when the coordination number is high and the ligands are soft and bulky or show strong interligand repulsion. The lone pair orbital has little or no p character when the geometry is holodirected, and the bonds are more covalent than in the hemidirected structures. The energy cost of converting a hemidirected to a constrained holodirected structure is of the order 8−12 kcal/mol in the absence of strong interligand interactions.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
