tetrakis(imidazolyl)borate and lead(II) nitrate solutions, is a layered
material with the metal centers facing the interlayer spacing. As
in naturally occurring layered minerals, this compound can readily
undergo anion exchange in the solid state with retention of
crystallinity. We examined stoichiometric exchange of 15N-nitrate
for nitrate and iodide for nitrate by 15N and 207Pb SSNMR and
confirmed retention of crystallinity by IR and powder XRD diffraction.
