Abstract
The title compound, {(C8H20N2)[PbCl4]}n, crystallizes as an layered inorganic–organic hybrid perovskite-type structure. Corner-sharing PbCl6 octahedra extend parallel to the ac plane. Adjacent layers are staggered relative to one another, with diammonium cations separating these layers. The cations exhibit symmetry and interact with the inorganic sheets via N—H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding in the right-angled halogen sub-type of the terminal halide hydrogen-bonding motif.
