N2 - We search for a possible Λ푐¯Σ푐 bound state, denoted as 퐻±푐, via the 푒+푒− →휋+휋−Λ+푐¯Λ−푐 process for the first time. This analysis utilizes 207.8 and 159.3 pb−1 of 푒+푒− annihilation data at the center-of-mass energies of 4918.02 and 4950.93 MeV, respectively, collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. No statistically significant signal is observed. The upper limits of the product of Born cross section and branching fraction 휎(푒+푒− →휋+퐻−푐 +c.c.) ×ℬ(퐻−푐 →휋−Λ+푐¯Λ−푐) at a 90% confidence level are reported at each energy point and for various 퐻푐 mass hypotheses (4715, 4720, 4725, 4730, and 4735 MeV/푐2) and widths (5, 10, or 20 MeV), with the upper limits ranging from 1.1 pb to 6.4 pb.
