Definitive identification of lead(II)-amino acid adducts and the solid state structure of a lead-valine complex

Chem Commun (Camb). 2004 Feb 7:(3):332-3. doi: 10.1039/b311599b. Epub 2004 Jan 8.

Abstract

Electrospray ionization mass spectra of lead(II) nitrate-amino acid mixtures enable unequivocal identification of lead complexes for each of the essential amino acids and a valine complex is reported as the first crystallographically characterized lead-amino acid complex.
