%X The synthesis and room-temperature single-crystal X-ray structure determination are recorded for a 1:1 adduct of lead(II) thiocyanate with pyridine (' py '). [( py ) Pb (SCN)2](&#8734;|&#8734;) is triclinic, P&#299; , a 10.544(1), b 7.3729(7), c 6.705(2) &#506;, &#945; 103.91(2), &#946; 95.99(2), &#947; 100.51(1)&#176;, Z = 2 f.u .; R was 0.041 for 3226 'observed' (I > 3&#963;(I)) reflections. The structure is a two-dimensional polymer in the be plane with eight-coordinate ( py -N)PbN3S4 linked by the familiar four- membered Pb2S2 and eight-membered Pb2(NCS)2 motifs by way of bridging thiocyanate groups; one of the latter, unusually, has a bifurcating bridging nitrogen atom leading to the introduction of Pb2N2 motifs. The structure of the parent lead(II) thiocyanate is also discussed.
