catena-Poly[[(2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline-κ(2)N,N')lead(II)]-di-μ-bromido].
In the title compound, [PbBr(2)(C(14)H(12)N(2))](n), the Pb(II) atom lies on a twofold rotation axis. The N-heterocycle-chelated Pb(II) atom exists in a distorted octa-hedral geometry owing to two long Pb⋯Br inter-actions [2.9562 (5) and 3.2594 (5) Å]. These result in a zigzag chain running along the c axis. The lone pair is stereochemically inactive.
