N,N'-Bis(2-aza-niumylbenz-yl)ethane-1,2-diaminium tetra-chloride.


ABSTRACT: The title compound, C(16)H(26)N(4) (4+)·4Cl(-), is based on a fully protonated tetra-amine. In the cation, both benzene rings are connected by an all-trans chain, and the rings are almost parallel, with an angle between the mean planes of 8.34?(12)°. The benzene rings are arranged in such a way that the NH(3) (+) substituents are oriented cis with respect to the central chain. This arrangement is a consequence of multiple N-H?Cl hydrogen bonds, involving all N-H groups in the cation and the four independent Cl(-) anions. These contacts have strengths ranging from weak to strong (based on H?Cl separations), and generate a complex three-dimensional crystal structure with no preferential crystallographic orientation for the contacts.
