Bis[(18-crown-6)isothio­cyanato­lead(II)] tetra­thio­cyanato­palladate(II)

The title complex, bis[(1,4,7,10,13,16-hexa­oxa­cyclo­octa­decane-κ6O)(isothio­cyanato-κN)lead(II)] tetra­kis(thio­cyan­ato-κS)palladate(II), [Pb(NCS)(C12H24O6)]2[Pd(NCS)4], has been synthesized by the reaction of PdCl2 and Pb(SCN)2 with 18-crown-6 in 1,2-dichloro­ethane. The complex is composed of two [Pb(18-crown-6)(NCS)]+ complex cations and one [Pd(SCN)4]2− complex anion. The Pd atom lies on a centre of symmetry. The cation and anion are associated through a weak inter­action between the Pb atom of the cation and an N atom of the anion.
