Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of bis(2,6-diaminopyridinium) tetrachloridocobaltate(II)

In the title molecular salt, (C5H8N3)2[CoCl4], the cations are protonated at their pyridine N atoms and the anion is an almost regular tetrahedron. The crystal structure consists of alternating inorganic layers, built from tetrachloridocobaltate anions, and organic layers formed by protonated cation...

description In the title molecular salt, (C5H8N3)2[CoCl4], the cations are protonated at their pyridine N atoms and the anion is an almost regular tetrahedron. The crystal structure consists of alternating inorganic layers, built from tetrachloridocobaltate anions, and organic layers formed by protonated cations of 2,6-diaminopyridinium. The crystal packing is governed by C/N—H...Cl hydrogen-bonding interactions between the organic and the inorganic ions and Cl...Cl interactions. Moreover, the cations show a π–π stacking interaction [intercentroid distance = 3.763 (2) Å]. The prevalence of these interactions is illustrated by an analysis of the three-dimensional Hirshfeld surface and by two-dimensional fingerprint plots.
