Bis(4-methoxybenzylammonium) tetrabromidocadmate(II)

Abstract

The asymmetric unit of the organic–inorganic hybrid salt, (C8H12NO)2[CdBr4], consists of two 4-methoxybenzylammonium cations and one [CdBr4]2− anion. The cations and anions are connected by a complex series of N—H...Br and C—H...Br hydrogen bonds. No π–π stacking interactions occur between the benzene rings but two C—H...π interactions are observed.
