The reaction of PbO with cyanuric acid was reported to give lead cyanurate , described in the literature as Pb 3 (O 3 C 3 N 3 ) 2 · 2H 2 O. Crystalline powders were prepared and investigated by X‐ray powder diffraction, yielding a monoclinic crystal structure (space group Cc, a = 16.6217(1) Å, b = 6.7161(1) Å, c = 12.4308(1) Å, β = 117.567(1)°). The structure solution and refinement yielded lead oxide isocyanurate corresponding to the formula Pb 3 O 2 (O 3 C 3 N 3 H 2 ) 2 , with a layered arrangement of [Pb 3 O 2 ] 2+ ions and monovalent isocyanurate anions in an alternating fashion.
