Bis(2-bromo­pyridinium) hexa­bromido­stannate(IV)

The asymmetric unit of the title compound, (C(5)H(5)BrN)(2)[SnBr(6)], contains one cation and one half-anion. The [SnBr(6)](2−) anion is located on an inversion center and forms a quasi-regular octa­hedral arrangement. The crystal structure consists of two-dimensional supra­molecular layers assembled via hydrogen-bonding inter­actions of N—H⋯Br—Sn [D⋯A = 3.375 (13)–3.562 (13) Å and D—H⋯A = 127–142°, along with C—Br⋯Br synthons [3.667 (2) and 3.778 (3) Å]. These layers are parallel to the bc plane and built up from anions inter­acting extensively with the six surrounding cations.
