We report the synthesis of the diamagnetic double salt bis(tetra(n-butyl)ammonium) phthalocyanato(2-)lithate hexafluorophosphate (nBu 4 N) 2 [Lipc]PF 6 [pc = phthalocyanine, nBu 4 N + = tetra(n-butyl)ammonium] in dme (dme = dimethoxyethane). According to singlecrystal X-ray diffraction structure analysis [P1, a = 8.642(2) Å, b = 12.820(3) Å, c = 15.019(3) Å, α = 83.01(3)°, β = 87.87(3)°, γ = 74.45(3)°, Z = 1, R 1 = 6.4 %], the phthalocyanine building bloc shows
