Crystal structure and Hirshfeld surface analysis of the organic–inorganic hybrid compound tris(2-iodoethylammonium) hexaiodidobismuthate(III)
The asymmetric unit of the title organic-inorganic salt, (IC<sub>2</sub>H<sub>4</sub>NH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>3</sub>[BiI<sub>6</sub>], consists of a [BiI<sub>6</sub>]<sup>3-</sup> octa-hedron and three 2-iodo-ethyl-ammonium cations. The octa-hedra do not inter-act with each other, and the supra-molecular arrangement is ensured by an intricate network of N-H⋯I hydrogen bonds between cations and anions. In addition, a weak I⋯I inter-action between an organic cation and the coordination octa-hedron is present in the crystal structure. Hirshfeld surface analysis revealed that the most important contributions to the crystal packing are from H⋯I (72.3%) and I⋯I (11.3%) inter-actions.
