Abstract
Abstract The assembly of two different building blocks, [{Au(C 6 F 5 ) 2 }{PbCl(terpy)}] (terpy=2,2′:6′:2′′‐terpyridine) and [{Au(C 6 F 5 ) 2 } 2 {Pb(terpy)}] n , acting as terminal or central pieces, respectively, gives rise to a decanuclear complex built via metallophilic and π‐stacking interactions in which the number of Au I ⋅⋅⋅Au I and Au I ⋅⋅⋅Pb II contacts is finely controlled.
