A new luminous end-to-end thiocyanato bridged heptacoordinated coordination polymer of lead(II) containing a tetradentate Schiff base

► One μ1,3-thiocyanato bridged 1D coordination polymer of lead(II) is isolated. ► X-ray study reveals interesting 2D honeycomb like (63) topology through S∙∙∙S interaction. ► The compound with the tetradentate Schiff base is example of luminous material. ► Thermogravimetric analyses show their thermal stability and decomposition pattern.
