The title polymeric complex, [PbPd(NCS)4(C20H36O6)(H2O)]n or {[Pb(DC18C6-A)(H2O)][Pd(SCN)4]}n (DC18C6-A = cis-syn-cis-dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6), has been synthesized by the reaction of dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 with PdCl2 and Pb(SCN)2. The SCN groups bridge [Pb(DC18C6-A)(H2O)]2+ complex cations and [Pd(SCN)4]2− complex anions to form infinite polymeric chains.
