The synthesis and single-crystal X-ray structure determination of the title compound (dinitrato) (1,4,8,11 -tetra-azaandecane) lead(II) is described. Crystals are monoclinic, P2 /ca= 10.271 (2)?,b= 13.524(4) ?,c= 11.298(6) ?,?=94.68(3),2=4,R,Rw, 0.036 and 0.041, respectively. The lead atom is eight-coordinate [Pb-N, 2.44 (2) - 2.55 (1)], [Pb-0,2.87 (1) - 3.06 (2)].

Measurements of the anisotropic properties of single crystals play a crucial role in probing the physics of new materials. Determining a growth protocol that yields suitable high-quality single crystals can be particularly challenging for multicomponent compounds. Here we present a case study of how we refined a procedure to grow single crystals of CaKFe4As4 from a high temperature, quaternary ...
