N,N′-Dibenzyl-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediammonium dibromide dihydrate
Abstract
In the title compound, C20H30N22+·2Br−·2H2O, the asymmetric unit consists of half of the N,N′-dibenzyl-N,N,N′,N′-tetramethylethylenediammonium cation lying across an inversion center, a bromide ion and a water molecule of solvation. There is an eight-membered dibromide dihydrate ring, which is formed via hydrogen bonds of the type O—H...Br.
