description

The title compound, [Pb(SC6F5)2]n, exhibits a layered structure containing two differently hexa­coordinated PbII atoms. One is situated on a centre of inversion and is coordinated by six S atoms, its valence lone pair of electrons being consequently stereochemically inactive. The other Pb atom is pyramidally coordinated by three S atoms and forms three contacts to adjacent F atoms, the stereochemically active lone pair pointing towards the F3 plane.
