Reactions of the aromatase inhibitor letrozole derivative 4,4Ј-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methylene-bis(benzonic acid) (H 2 tzmb) with Zn II , Cd II , or Pb II salts under similar conditions resulted in the generation of three coordination polymers, namely, {[Zn(tzmb) (H 2 tzmb)]•H 2 O} n (1), [Cd(tzmb)(H 2 O) 2 ] n (2), and {[Pb(tzmb) (H 2 O)]•DMF} n (3), respectively. Their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analyses and further characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, and thermogravimetric analyses.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
