In the structure of the title salt, {(C2H7BrN)[SnBr3]}n, the tin(II)atom features a strongly distorted octa­hedral environment ensured by six bromido ligands. By face-sharing, these SnBr6 coordination octa­hedra are connected into polymeric chains, which propagate along the b-axis direction. Organic cations, stabilized in a gauche conformation, inter­leave the inorganic polymeric chains. Hydrogen bonds of the type N—H⋯Br between organic cations and inorganic chains create supra­molecular layers parallel to the ab plane. These layers inter­act with each other thought weak C—H⋯Br contacts.

1. Chemical context

Hybrid organic–inorganic metal halides have emerged as an important class of semiconducting materials owing to their optical and electronic properties and their applicability in a wide range of optoelectronic devices, including solar cells, light-emitting diodes, photodetectors, and lasers (Zhang et al., 2023View full citation). The archetypal halide perovskites adopt the general formula ABX3, where A is a monovalent organic or inorganic cation, B is a divalent metal cation (commonly Pb2+ or Sn2+), and X is a halide anion. In the corresponding crystal structures, corner-sharing BX6 octa­hedra form an extended framework that is responsible for their favorable charge-transport and optical properties (Li et al., 2017View full citation).

Despite their outstanding performance, the toxicity of lead has stimulated intense research into alternative compositions, among which tin-based halide perovskites are considered the most promising candidates due to their suitable band gaps, strong optical absorption, and high charge-carrier mobilities (Pitaro et al., 2022View full citation). However, the use of Sn2+-based systems can present specific challenges, including susceptibility to oxidation and a strong tendency toward structural diversity, which distinguishes them from their lead-based analogues. In particular, the stereochemically active 5s2 lone pair of Sn2+ often induces significant distortions of the coordination environment, leading to low-symmetry structures and a wide range of structural motifs (Stoumpos et al., 2017View full citation; Sirenko et al., 2024View full citation).

The periodicity of hybrid halide perovskites can be tuned by the size and functionality of the organic cations, giving rise to structures containing layers, chains, and discrete metal-halide octa­hedra (Zhou et al., 2019View full citation). In such systems, the connectivity of the metal–halide octa­hedra – whether corner-, edge-, or face-sharing – plays a decisive role in determining their electronic structure and band gap. Reduced periodicity and non-corner-sharing connectivity generally lead to increased band gaps, enhanced carrier localization, and pronounced excitonic effects. Consequently, zero-, mono- and diperiodic tin halides often exhibit distinct optical properties compared to their counterparts of the ABX3 type.

Monoperiodic hybrid tin halides, in particular, have attracted growing attention due to their unique structural and physical properties. Their inorganic frameworks typically consist of chains of connected Sn–halide polyhedra, which may adopt different connectivity modes, including corner- and edge-sharing arrangements (Shi et al., 2019View full citation; Spanopoulos et al., 2020View full citation). These systems exhibit strong quantum confinement and enhanced electron–phonon coupling, often resulting in broadband emission that can originate from self-trapped excitons or defect-related states. Moreover, the structural flexibility of Sn2+ allows for the formation of highly distorted chains, which can further modulate the optical and electronic properties (Tao et al., 2024View full citation).

The exploration of new tin(II) halide materials remains of considerable inter­est, particularly in relation to understanding structure–property relationships and expanding the library of perovskite-related architectures. In this context, the title compound formed unintentionally during the planned synthesis of aziridinium tin bromide (Kucheriv et al., 2023View full citation) due to the high reactivity of aziridine, which can undergo ring-opening reactions in acidic media. The crystal structure of this new monoperiodic hybrid tin(II) bromide (2-BrC2H4NH3)[SnBr3] features chains constructed from bromido-bridged Sn2+ cations, further contributing to the structural diversity of tin halide systems.

2. Structural commentary

The tin(II) cation features a strongly distorted octa­hedral coordination environment provided by six bromido ligands (Fig. 1[link], Table 1[link]). These inorganic octa­hedra feature three short Sn—Br bonds and three long ones, the latter being shorter than the sum of the van der Waals radii of Sn and Br (4.00 Å; Mantina et al., 2009View full citation). Such a coordination environment with asymmetric trigonal distortion of the octa­hedron created by three shorter-bonded halogen anions in combination with three longer Sn—X contacts is quite typical for Sn2+ and has been observed for similar perovskite-like structures (Fabini et al., 2016View full citation). The octa­hedral distortion parameters of [SnBr6] are very high with Δd = 1/6Σ(di − d)2/d2 = 0.0187 (where di is one of six individual bond lengths in the octa­hedra and d is the mean Sn—Br bond length) and Σ = Σ|90° − α| = 165.3° (where α are the twelve cis-Br—Sn—Br angles). Alternatively, longer Sn—Br bonds can be considered as inter­ionic contacts between pyramidal [SnBr3] moieties.

Short and long Sn—Br bonds are shown in black and orange, respectively. Only one part of the disordered organic cation is given for clarity; symmetry codes refer to Table 1[link].

The coordination octa­hedra in this structure are further connected in a face-sharing manner into chains extending parallel to the b axis (Fig. 2[link]). The negative charge of inorganic chains is balanced by organic 2-bromo­ethyl­ammonium cations, in which atoms Br4 and C2 are disordered in a nearly 1:1 ratio over two sets of sites. The observed bond lengths in the organic cation are within the expected ranges (Table 1[link]), with the conformation being gauche with Br4A—C2A—C1—N1 and Br4B—C2B—C1—N1 torsion angles of 51 (2) and −58.2 (17)°, respectively.

3. Supra­molecular features

Inorganic chains inter­act with organic counter-ions through a set of N—H⋯·Br hydrogen bonds (Table 2[link], Figs. 2[link] and 3[link]). Each protonated amino group creates three hydrogen bonds with bromide ions connecting two neighboring inorganic chains into supra­molecular layers parallel to the ab plane. These supra­molecular layers inter­act though weak C—H⋯Br inter­actions (Table 2[link], Fig. 2[link]).

4. Database survey

A search of the Cambridge Structure Database (CSD; version 6.0, updated November 2025; Groom et al., 2016View full citation) revealed four crystal structures containing tin halides in combination with 2-halogeno­ethyl­ammonium cations. These compounds were considered because chemically similar 2-halogeno­ethyl­ammonium cations often direct the structural set-up of related organic–inorganic hybrid compounds. Two of them are Sn4+-hybrid compounds containing discrete [SnX6]2– (X = Cl, Br) octa­hedra surrounded by 2-chloro­ethyl­ammonium cations (CSD refcodes KOVQOF, KOVQIZ; Elghoul et al., 2024View full citation). The third compound is (2-bromo­ethyl­ammonium)2[SnBr6] (USOTAB; Kreiman et al., 2026View full citation), which is isostructural to the two mentioned above, while the fourth compound is (2-iodo­ethyl­ammonium)2[SnI4], in which corner-sharing [SnIII6]4– octa­hedra create infinite layers which are inter­leaved by organic cations (TEGROQ; Song et al., 2022View full citation).

The title compound differs from these previously reported structures by containing Sn2+ cations and a catena-poly[tri-μ2-bromido­stannate(II)] inorganic substructure extending into infinite chains.

5. Synthesis and crystallization

The title compound was obtained unintentionally upon the planned synthesis of (aziridinium)SnBr3 by the vapor diffusion method; the single-crystal X-ray diffraction experiment established the formation of (2-BrC2H4NH3)[SnBr3] instead of the target perovskite. Tin(II) chloride (150 mg, 0.79 mmol, 1 eq.) was dissolved in 1 ml of water and 0.1 ml of hydro­chloric acid (37% w/w) to avoid hydrolysis. To this solution 0.5 ml of ammonia solution (25% w/w) were added 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% w/w) and 4.5 ml of water. 0.2 ml of this acidic solution of tin(II) bromide was placed in a 1 ml vial. This vial was placed in a larger vial containing aziridine. The colourless crystals that formed within 1 h were collected immediately and kept in Paratone oil prior to measurements.

6. Refinement

Crystal data, data collection and structure refinement details are summarized in Table 3[link]. The positional disorder of the organic cation was modelled over two set of sites, with C2 and Br4 atoms disordered over two positions and C1 and N1 atoms not being disordered. The sum of occupancies for disordered atoms was set to unity. The refined occupancies are 0.526 (18) and 0.474 (18) for parts A and B, respectively. H atoms were placed at calculated positions and refined with Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(C), Uiso(H) = 1.2Ueq(N). H atoms of secondary CH2 groups were refined as riding, while H atoms of NH3+ groups were refined as rotating. The crystal under investigation was found to be twinned by a 180° rotation around [100], and the intensity data processed into a HKLF5-type file; the twin components refined to a ratio of 0.6570 (11) : 0.3430 (11).

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.

Refinement. Refined as a 2-component twin.
