Abstract:
The structure of the title complex, (C6H16N2)[WS4], consists of a tetrahedral [WS4]2(-) dianion situated in a general position and two crystallographically independent trans-cyclohexane-1,4-diammonium cations located on centres of inversion. The anions are linked to the organic ammonium cations via N-H center dot center dot center dot S hydrogen bonds, resulting in the formation of alternating layers of cations and anions.
