The twinned crystal structure of [4,4′-bipyridine]-1,1′-diium hexachloridostannate(IV), C10H10N2SnCl6.

Keywords: 2144049 EN 2144049 281 284 4 03/11/22 20220401 NES 220401 A selected region of the hydrogen bonded layered title crystal structure is shown in the figure with view along [-100]. Each I bipy i H SB 2 sb cation is connected to four neighboring [SnCl SB 6 sb ] SP 2- sp anions by four weak bifurcated N-H Cl hydrogen bonds (see the figure; N1 Cl1 3.367(5) Å). The twinned crystal structure of [4,4'-bipyridine]-1,1'-diium hexachloridostannate(IV), C10H10N2SnCl6 This finding came as no surprise, as the large number of hydrogen bond acceptor atoms of the [SnCl SB 6 sb ] SP 2- sp anion only has to be related to one I bipy i H SB 2 sb dication in this AB salt compound.
