Utilizing enantiomerically pure organic spacers for anion-centred clusters in a hybrid inorganic–organic lead-halide crystal

Abstract

In this work, we present structural data of the novel, chiral material (S-2AH)₄[Pb₂Br₇]Br obtained from single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). This quasi-2D material displays anion-centred clusters within its organic layer, without the need for bi-functional spacers. Instead, the structure is based on the steric properties of the used enantiomerically pure precursors.
