Poly[μ-aqua-μ-(N,4-dichloro-2-methylbenzenesulfonamidato)-potassium]

Abstract

In the title compound, [K(C7H6Cl2NO2S)(H2O)]n, the K+ cation is heptacoordinated by two water O atoms, a sulfonyl O atom from each of four different N,4-dichloro-2-methylbenzenesulfonamidate anions and a Cl atom of one of the anions. Further, K—O—K bridges form extensive polymeric chains along the b axis. In the crystal structure, the anions are linked into layers parallel to (100) by O—H...Cl and O—H...N hydrogen bonds.
