Abstract

The synthesis and crystal structure are given for the bis(3-dimethylammonium-1-propyne)pentachlorobismuthate(III) salt. An X-ray investigation has shown that the title compound crystallizes at 298 K in a centrosymmetric monoclinic system, space group C2/c with the following lattice parameters a = 12.6215(4) Å, b = 18.9228(5) Å, c = 8.3134(2) Å, β = 104.100(2)°, V = 1925.70(9) Å3. The structure was solved from 7,716 independent reflections with R 1 = 0.0457 and wR 2 = 0.0906, and refined with 85 parameters. The structure consists of disordered 3-dimethylammonium-1-propyne, C5H9NH+ cations and polynuclear anions in which slightly distorted (BiCl5)2− anions, sharing an apex are interconnected in chains. These chains are themselves interconnected by means of N–H···Cl originating from the C5H9NH+ entities, forming a three-dimensional network.
