Abstract
The interesting three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded self-assembled network of [(CH2)6N4CH3]+ cations and [CoCl4]2– anions has been prepared and structurally characterized. In the title complex, the quaternization of one hexamethylenetetramine nitrogen atom has been trapped, and further stabilized by the large [CoCl4]2– anions, featuring C–H···Cl hydrogen bonds (3.497–3.709 Å) between the methylene groups of [(CH2)6N4CH3]+ cations and the chlorine atoms of the [CoCl4]2– anions.https://doi.org/10.1071/CH02026
