The crystal structure of [AsPh 4 ] 2 [Pb(S 2 C=C(CN) 2 ) 2 ] has been determined by X-ray diffraction. In the pyramidal complex anion [Pb(S 2 C=C(CN) 2 ) 2 ] 2- Pb is coordinated to the sulfur atoms of the dithiolates. The geometry is indicative for a stereochemically active lone-pair at the apex of the square pyramid.
