Abstract
The title compound, (C8H13N2)(4)[SbsI(22)].4H(2)O, crystallizes with a n Sb6I224- anion consisting of edge-shared distorted octahedra [Sb-I r ange 2.789 (2)-3.421 (2) Angstrom] and monoprotonated tetramethylpyraz inium cations which are bridged by solvent water molecules form infini te chains [N ... O range 2.69 (1)-2.95 (1) Angstrom]. The anion has a structure corresponding to a section from a layer of the CdI2 structur e, similar to that previously observed when crystallized with a bis(cy clopentadienyl)iron(III) cation [Pohl, Lotz, Saak & Haase (1989).
