1,3-Bis[(3-allyl­imidazol-3-ium-1-yl)meth­yl]benzene bis­(hexa­fluoridophosphate)

In the title compound, C(20)H(24)N(4) (2+)·2PF(6) (−), the ethene and 3-allyl­imidazolium moieties of the cation are disordered over two positions with refined site occupancies of 0.664 (19):0.336 (19) and 0.784 (7):0.216 (7), respectively, whereas four F atoms of one hexa­fluoridophosphate anion and all atoms in the other hexa­fluoridophosphate anion are disordered over two positions with refined site occupancies of 0.764 (5):0.2365) and 0.847 (9):0.153 (9), respectively. The benzene ring is inclined at angles of 78.2 (3), 81.3 (4) and 73.9 (12)° with the 1H-imidazol-3-ium ring and the major and minor components of the disordered 1H-imidazol-3-ium ring, respectively. In the crystal, the hexa­fluoridophosphate anions link the cations into two-dimensional networks parallel to (001) via inter­molecular C—H⋯F hydrogen bonds. The crystal structure is further consolidated by π–π [centroid–centroid distance = 3.672 (3) Å] and C—H⋯π inter­actions.
