Abstract
- The crystal structure of the new inorganic-organic hybrid compound [4-CH<subscript>3</subscript>C<subscript>6</subscript>H<subscript>4</subscript>CH<subscript>2</subscript>NH<subscript>3</subscript>]<subscript>3</subscript>[CdCl<subscript>4</subscript>] has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pnma with lattice parameters a = 10.721(2), b = 33.986(6), c = 5.326(1) Å, β= 97.222(1)°, V = 1940.8(7) Å3, and Z = 4. The framework of the title compound is built upon layers parallel to (010) made up from corner-sharing CdCl6 octahedra. 4-Methylbenzylammonium cations are situated between the layers and connect them via an N-H… Cl hydrogen bonding network. The Cd atom is located on an inversion centre, and the coordination environment is described as distorted octahedral. Solid state 13C CP-MAS NMR spectroscopy is in agreement with the X-ray structure. DFT calculations allow the attribution of the carbon peaks to the independent crystallographic sites. Thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy were also used to characterize the complex [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
