ABSTRACT
In the title quaternary ammonium salt, C55H61N4 (+)·I(-), all three N,N-di-benzyl-ethanamine, -(CH2)2N(CH2C6H5)2, groups have different conformations. The N-C-C-N torsion angles are significantly different [89.86â (13), 162.61â (10) and 175.70â (10)°] and the dihedral angles between the phenyl rings in these groups are different as well [58.21â (4), 43.73â (4) and 76.72â (5)°]. In the crystal, the I(-) anions fill empty spaces between the bulky cations. The cations and anions are linked by weak C-Hâ¯I inter-actions, forming a chain along [110].
