Where are all the bis(π‐indenyl) complexes of the “post‐transition elements”? The first example of this type of complex with a Group 14 element has now been synthesized and characterized. [Pb{1,3‐(SiMe 3 ) 2 C 9 H 5 } 2 ] is unstable in solution, but forms thermally stable crystals that reveal a sandwich geometry with nearly parallel, η 5 ‐coordinated C 5 rings of the indenyl ligand (see structure on the right).
