Abstract

A new indium(III) fluoride complex with the ammonium cation (NH4)2[InF5] is synthesized and its crystal structure is studied. The structure of (NH4)2[InF5] is formed of cations and complex [InF5]2- anions. The In atom in the complex anion surrounded by four terminal and two bridging F atoms forms an almost regular octahedral coordination polyhedron (CN 6) with two terminal F atoms in the axial positions and two terminal and two bridging F atoms in the equatorial plane. Through bridging F atoms, the InF6 polyhedra are arranged in polymer trans- vertex-connected corrugated anion chains (InF5) directed along the c axis. The N-H⋯F hydrogen bonds organize the chains in a three-dimensional framework.
