We report the synthesis and crystal structure of the new compound Sr{sub 4}PbPt{sub 4}O{sub 11}, containing platinum in highly unusual square pyramidal coordination. The crystals were obtained in molten lead oxide. The structure was solved by X-ray single crystal diffraction techniques on a twinned sample, the final R factors are R=0.0260 and wR=0.0262. The symmetry is triclinic, space group P1-bar , with a=5.6705(6)A, b=9.9852(5)A, c=10.0889(5)A, {alpha}=90.421(3){sup o}, {beta}=89.773(8){sup o}, {gamma}=90.140(9){sup o} and Z=2. The structure is built from dumbell-shaped Pt{sub 2}O{sub 9} entities formed by a dinuclear metal-metal bonded Pt{sub 2}{sup 6+} ion with asymmetric environments of the two Pt atoms, classical PtO{sub 4} square plane and unusual PtO{sub 5} square pyramid. Successive Pt{sub 2}O{sub 9} entities deduced from 90{sup o} rotations are connected through the oxygens of the PtO{sub 4} basal squares to form [Pt{sub 4}O{sub 10}{sup 8-}]{sub {approx}} columns further connected through Pb{sup 2+} and Sr{sup 2+} ions. Raman spectroscopy confirmed the peculiar platinum coordination environment.
