Cover illustration: The polymeric compound, [PbBr2(C10H8N2)]n, consists of 1[infinity][PbBr4/2] chains running parallel to [001]. Each PbII atom is additionally chelated by a 2,2'-bi­pyridine ligand, completing a distorted octa­hedral Br4N2 coordination set. In the crystal, weak C-H...Br hydrogen bonds and [pi]-[pi] stacking inter­actions link the [PbBr2(C10H8N2)]n chains into a three-dimensional supra­molecular structure. See: Zhang & Wu [IUCrData (2016). 1, x160782].
