1,4-Diazoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane tetrachlorocobaltate

C. A. Bremner and W. T. A. Harrison

Abstract: The title compound, (C₆H₁₄N₂)[CoCl₄], is isostructural with (C₆H₁₄N₂)[MCl₄] (M = Cu, Zn) and contains doubly protonated dabconium C₆H₁₄N₂²⁺ cations and [CoCl₄]^2- tetrahedra. These species interact by way of bifurcated N-H(Cl,Cl) hydrogen bonds to form corrugated chains. The chains interact by way of van der Waals forces and C-HCl hydrogen bonds.
