The compound [(PyH)3Br][AlBr4]2 is formed by melting stoichiometric amounts of AlBr/PyHBr in a ratio of 2:3. It crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pbca with lattice constants a = 1365.5(2), b = 1616.0(2), c = 2783.7(3) pm, Z = 8, Dc = 2.21 g/cm3. The structure was solved from 2810 diffractometer measured intensities (Cu -Kα radiation) and refined to Rw (F) = 0.071. The cation shows three pyridinium ions attached via N - H - Br hydrogen bonds to a central bromide ion. The N - Br distances are 321(1), 321(2) and 332(2) pm.
A phase equilibrium study of the system aluminiumbromide and pyridiniumbromide has been carried out. The phase diagram of the system indicates the existence of three congruently melting com pounds of the molar ratio AlBr3/PyHBr 1:1, 1:3, 2 :3 and one incongruently melting compound of the molar ratio 1:2 and is therefore similar to the AlCl3-PyHCl system [1].
