In the title compound, C6H7BrN+·PF6-·H2O, N-H
F, N-H
O and O-H
F hydrogen-bonding interactions stabilize the crystal structure and give rise to to chains running parallel to the c axis. In the anion, four of the F atoms are disordered over two sets of sites of equal occupancy.
The title compound was synthesized as part of our group's search for ferroelectric compounds, which usually have a phase transition. For background to phase transition materials, see: Li et al. (2008
); Zhang et al. (2009
).
