N,N′-Bis(2-azaniumylbenzyl)ethane-1,2-diaminium tetrachloride

The title compound, C16H26N44+·4Cl−, is based on a fully protonated tetraamine. In the cation, both benzene rings are connected by an all-trans chain, and the rings are almost parallel, with an angle between the mean planes of 8.34 (12)°. The ben...
