Lead(II) nitrate is a chemical compound, the inorganic salt of nitric acid and lead. It is a colourless crystal or white powder and a strong, stable oxidizer. Unlike most other lead(II) salts, it is soluble in water. Its main use from the Middle Ages, under the name plumbum dulce, has been as raw material in the production of many pigments. Since the 20th century, it has been industrially used as a heat stabilizer in nylon and polyesters, and in coatings of photothermographic paper. Commercial production did not take place until the 19th century in Europe, and in the United States until after 1943, with a typical production process of metallic lead or lead oxide in nitric acid. The flash point of a flammable liquid is the lowest temperature at which it can form an ignitable mixture with air. ...

History

Since the Middle Ages, lead(II) nitrate has been produced on a very small scale as a raw material for the production of coloured pigments, such as chrome yellow (lead(II) chromate), chrome orange (lead(II) hydroxide chromate) and similar lead compounds. As early as the 15th century, the German alchemist Andreas Libavius synthesized the compound, coining the mediaeval names of plumb dulcis and calx plumb dulcis.^[1] Although the production process is chemically straightforward, production was minimal until the 19th century, and no non-European production before the 20th century is reported.^[2][3] Chrome Yellow is a natural yellow pigment made of lead(II) chromate (PbCrO4). ...

When lead(II) nitrate is heated, it decomposes to lead(II) oxide, accompanied by a crackling noise referred to as decrepitation.

Lead(II) nitrate readily dissolves in water to give a clear colourless solution.^[4] This solution reacts with soluble iodides such as potassium iodide to produce a precipitate of the bright orange-yellow lead(II) iodide.

Up through the half equivalence point, Pb(NO₃)₂·Pb(OH)₂ predominates, then after this point Pb(NO₃)₂·5Pb(OH)₂ is formed.

The black dots represent the lead atoms, while the white dots represent the nitrate groups 27 pm above the plane of the lead atoms, and the blue dots represent the nitrate groups the same distance below this plane. In this configuration every lead atom is bonded to 12 oxygen atoms (bond length: 281 pm). All N-O bond lengths are identical: 125 pm.

In molecular geometry, bond length or bond distance is the distance between two bonded atoms in a molecule. ...

Academic interest in the crystal structure of this compound was partly based on the possibility of free internal rotation of the nitrate groups within the crystal lattice at elevated temperatures, but this did not materialise.^[7]

Complexation

Lead(II) nitrate has some interesting supramolecular chemistry associated with it because of its coordination to nitrogen and oxygen electron donating compounds. The interest is largely academic but with some potential applications. For example, combining lead nitrate and pentaethylene glycol in a solution of acetonitrile and methanol followed by slow evaporation produces a new crystalline material [Pb(NO₃)₂(EO₅)].^[8] The crystal structure for this compound has the PEO chain wrapped around the lead ion in an equatorial plane similar to a crown ether. The two bidentate nitrate ligands are situated in a trans configuration. The total coordination number is 10 with the lead ion in a bicapped square antiprism molecular geometry.

The complex formed by lead(II) nitrate, lead(II) perchlorate and a bithiazole bidentate N-donor ligand^[9] is binuclear with a nitrate group forming a bridge between the lead atoms with coordination number of 5 and 6. One interesting aspect of this type of complexes is the presence of a physical gap in the coordination sphere (i.e., the ligands are not placed symmetrically around the metal ion), and it is suggested that this is due to a lead lone pair of electrons. The same phenomenon is described in lead complexes with an imidazole ligand.^[10] organic chemical compound with the empirical formula C3H3SN. Its structure is a 5-membered ring, in which two of the corners of the ring are nitrogen and sulfur, and the other three are carbons. ...

This type of chemistry is not always unique to lead nitrate; other lead(II) compounds such as lead(II) bromide also form complexes, but the nitrate is frequently used because of its solubility properties and its bidentate nature.

Preparation

The compound is normally obtained by dissolving lead as the metal or oxide in aqueous nitric acid.^[11] Anhydrous Pb(NO₃)₂ can be crystallised directly from the solution. There is no known industrial scale production. Lead(II) oxide or litharge is a yellow oxide of lead of formula PbO, created by heating lead in air. ...

Safety

The hazards of lead(II) nitrate are those of soluble lead compounds in general and, to a lesser extent, those of other inorganic nitrates. It is toxic, and ingestion may lead to acute lead poisoning. Symptoms include: intestinal malfunction, strong abdominal pains, appetite loss, nausea, vomiting and cramps, while longer-term exposure may lead to neurological and renal problems. Lead compounds are known to be cumulative poisons, as more than 90% of absorbed lead is fixed in bone tissue from which it is only slowly released over a period of years. Lead poisoning is a medical condition, also known as saturnism, plumbism or painters colic, caused by increased blood lead levels. ...

Children are more efficient at absorbing lead from the gastrointestinal tract than adults, thus they are more at risk from lead poisoning. Exposure to lead compounds during pregnancy has been linked to increased rates of spontaneous abortion, fetal malformation and low birth weight. Given the cumulative nature of lead toxicity, children and pregnant women should be exposed to soluble lead compounds as little as possible — this is a legal requirement in many countries.^[13] The gastrointestinal tract (GI tract), also called the digestive tract, alimentary canal, or gut, is the system of organs within multicellular animals that takes in food, digests it to extract energy and nutrients, and expels the remaining waste. ...
