title: An unusual assembled Pb(ii) meso-helicate that shows the inert pair effect.
abstract: A dinuclear Pb(ii) mesocate has been prepared with an unprecedented four-coordinated kernel in which the Pb(ii) lone pair is stereochemically active. This is the first time that this effect has been observed in a supramolecular Pb(ii) helicate or meso-helicate.
