In the hybride title salt, (C2H7BrN)2[SnBr6], the charge of the anionic [SnBr6]2− moiety is balanced by two (H3N(CH2)2Br)+ cations. The tin(IV) atom is located on a mirror plane and has a slightly distorted octahedral coordination environment. The inorganic octahedra are discrete, thus leading to a 0D topology within the The two crystallographically unique organic cations have different conformations: while one has a gauche conformation, the other has an anti conformation, both without special symmetry but with positional disorder over the crystallographic mirror plane. Contacts between organic and inorganic parts in the are ensured by N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds and weak Br⋯Br and C—H⋯Br interactions.
Keywords: crystal structure; bis(2-bromoethanamine) hexabromidostannate(IV); tin(IV) bromide; metal halides.

1. Chemical context
Hybrid metal halides with perovskite-type structures are an important class of solution-processed semiconductors with noteworthy electronic and optical behavior. The most studied are Pb-based perovskites, but inclusion of toxic lead makes the resulting product rather inapplicable. To reduce the toxicity of the resulting perovskites, Pb is frequently replaced with less toxic elements like Sn, Ge, Cu, Sb, or Bi. Sn-based hybrid perovskites were found to be the most promising ones in terms of their optoelectric properties (Wang & Shi, 2024
). Notably, during storage in air, tin can oxidize from SnII to SnIV, which is usually a drawback, but SnIV-based materials have still found some important applications. For example, SnIV can play beneficial roles in perovskites when deliberately engineered at surfaces or in the bulk of oxide-based materials. In inorganic CsPb0.6Sn0.4I3, sequential surface SnIV hydrolysis leads to an ultrathin n-type tin-oxide layer that passivates traps and optimizes band alignment, raising power conversion efficiency to 16.79% with T90 ≃ 958 h, illustrating purposeful the use of SnIV as an interfacial component rather than a defect (Hu et al., 2023
). Deliberately maintained oxidized tin at surfaces or grain boundaries can also assist passivation, barrier formation, and contact selectivity in tin perovskite optoelectronics (Yang et al., 2025
).
Apart from well-studied hybrid perovskites with methylammonium and formamidinium cations, materials containing the aziridinium cation have gained attention in the past few years. The small size of the aziridinium cation suits the perovskite tolerance window (Teng et al., 2021
) and promotes stabilization of 3D halide frameworks (Petrosova et al., 2022
). Combining the reduced toxicity of tin with the small aziridinium ring cation, (AzrH)SnHal3 (Hal is a halogen) perovskites can stabilize 3D frameworks and maintain semiconducting properties for multiple halides, positioning them as attractive lead-free materials for light absorption and emission (Kucheriv et al., 2023
). At the same time, working with aziridinium tin halide perovskite requires additional caution due to the tendency of tin(II) to oxidize to tin(IV) and of aziridinium to undergo ring opening (Fig. 1
).

In this work we report on the of bis(2-bromoethylammonium) hexabromidostanate(IV), which has formed unintentionally upon the intended synthesis of (AzrH)SnBr3.
2. Structural commentary
The of the title compound consists of two organic 2-bromoethylammonium cations and octahedral [SnBr6]2– anions (Fig. 2
). The backbone of the cation N1—C1—C2—Br5 has a torsional angle of −65.4 (13)° and thus adopts a gauche conformation, while that of the other cation N2—C3—C4—Br6 has a torsional angle of 165.9 (7)° and adopts an anti conformation. Both cations are equally disordered over a mirror plane. This disorder affects atoms C2 and Br5 of the first cation and C4 of the second cation, as well as the H atoms bonded to N1, N2, C1, and C3. The neighbouring [SnBr6]2– octahedra do not interact directly with each other, leading to a 0D topology within the The Sn—Br bond lengths vary from 2.5662 (10) to 2.6135 (16) Å. The [SnBr6]2– octahedron is distorted with notable elongation of axial bonds: Sn1—Br4 and Sn1—Br2 bond length are 2.6127 (16) Å and 2.6135 (16) Å, respectively, while the bond lengths Sn1—Br1 and Sn1—Br3 (and two symmetry equivalents generated by a mirror plane) with ligands in equatorial positions are 2.5828 (10) Å and 2.5662 (10) Å, respectively. The angles Br4—Sn1—Br2 and Br3—Sn1—Br1 are almost equal, 178.52 (5) and 178.72 (4)°, with minimal deviation from the ideal 180°. The cis-Br—Sn—Br angles vary from 89.11 (4) to 91.82 (5)°, which also shows a very small deviation from 90°. Quantitative octahedral distortion parameters were calculated as Δd = (1/6)Σ6i=1(di − d)2/d2 (1) and Σ=12i=1|90 − αi| (2) where di is the Sb—Br bond length and d is the average bond length, and αi corresponds to 12 cis-angles in the octahedron. The value of Δd is 5.64 × 10−5, which is typical for a perovskite structure with 0D topology. The Σ value amounts to 8.669°.

3. Supramolecular features
Fig. 3
shows a fragment of the and illustrates the intermolecular organization through N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds, formed between ammonium groups and the Br atoms of the [SnBr6]2– anions, which create supramolecular layers parallel to the bc plane (Figs. 3
, 4
). The strongest hydrogen bonds are N2—H2D⋯Br2 and N1—H1A⋯Br1(−x + 1, −y + 2, −z), with D⋯A distances of 3.462 (10) and 3.481 (9) Å, and N—H⋯Br angles of 133 and 134°, respectively. Numerical data of other N—H⋯Br interactions are given in Table 1
. Notably, N—H⋯Br hydrogen bonds are not realized between the ammonium group and the Br atoms of neighbouring cations. Instead, a close Br2⋯Br6(1 + x, y, z) contact [3.704 (2) Å] is observed between the bromine atom of an organic cation and one of the bromido ligands [C4—Br6(1 + x, −y, z)⋯Br2 = 159.3689 (11)°, Sn1—Br6(1 + x, −y, z)⋯Br2 = 143.209 (3)°]. The arrangement of this Br⋯Br interaction suggests partial σ-hole directionality, although the distance is at the van der Waals limit (3.7 Å for Br⋯Br; Bondi, 1964
), indicating a weak halogen-type interaction rather than a strong halogen bond.

There are other short Br⋯Br interactions between neighbouring [SnBr6]2– octahedra (Fig. 5
) within a range of 3.7–3.8 Å, and Θ1 ≃ Θ2 (135 and 107°, accordingly). This distance corresponds to approximately the sum of van der Waals radii and can therefore interpreted as a type I geometry-based contact (Veluthaparambath et al., 2023
) arising from close-packing requirements rather than a true halogen⋯halogen interaction (Desiraju & Parthasarathy, 1989
; Veluthaparambath et al., 2023
). This Br⋯Br contact ensures that [SnBr6]2– octahedra arrange themselves into supramolecular layers. Organic cations also arrange themselves, then into supramolecular chains propagating parallel to the b axis through weak C—H⋯Br interactions (Fig. 6
, Table 1
). Additional C—H⋯Br contacts (Table 1
) between the organic cations and the [SnBr6]2– octahedra consolidate the packing.

4. Database survey
A search of the Cambridge Structure Database (CSD, version 6.00, last update April 2025; Groom et al., 2016
) revealed 102 structures containing the 2-bromoethylammonium cation of the title compound. Selected examples include OJAPIC (Luo et al., 2023
) and NUSRIF (Ishihara et al., 2020
). OJAPIC is (2-bromoetylammonium)3[InBr6] containing discrete [InBr6] octahedra with an 0D topology similar to that of the title compound. NUSRIF is (2-bromoetylammonium)2[CdBr4] and is made up from [CdBr6] octahedra connected into layers through corner-sharing.
5. Synthesis and crystallization
Tin(II) chloride (150 mg, 0.79 mmol, 1 eq.) was dissolved in 1 ml of water and 0.1 ml of HCl (to avoid hydrolysis). Ammonia solution (0.5 ml) was added to the first solution and stirred. As a result, a white precipitate of Sn(OH)2 was formed. The precipitate was filtered off and washed with water. The obtained tin hydroxide was dissolved in a mixture of 2.4 ml of hydrobromic acid (48%wt) and 4.5 ml of water. Aziridine (120 µl, 2.3 mmol, 2.9 eq.) were dissolved in 2 ml of water, previously cooled in an ice bath. The aziridine solution was then added dropwise to tin bromide solution in an ice bath under stirring (Kucheriv et al., 2023
). After that, the solution was left in the air for a month to produce crystals of the title compound.
6. Refinement
Crystal data, data collection and structure details are summarized in Table 2
. Disorder is caused by a mirror plane parallel to the ac plane. Occupancies of C2, C4 and Br5 were set to 0.5. Hydrogen atoms bonded to C1, C3, N1, N2 are also disordered over this mirror plane. One hydrogen atom (H4A) was considered to be part of two disordered moieties [C4, C4(x, − y, z)]. H atoms were placed at calculated positions and refined with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C) or Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N). H atoms of CH2 groups were refined as riding and of NH3 groups as rotating.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
