Bis(p-toluidinium) tetrachlorozincate(II)

M. Rademeyer

Abstract: The title organic-inorganic hybrid salt, bis(p-toluidinium) tetrachlorozincate(II), (C₇H₇NH₃)₂[ZnCl₄], crystallizes in a structure consisting of alternating ionic and organic layers. Weak C-H hydrogen-bonding interactions occur in the organic layer, and strong charge-assisted N-HCl interactions are present in the inorganic layer between ammonium groups and discrete [ZnCl₄]^2- tetrahedra.
