Starting materials: SnBr2, C6H5CH2CH2NH3Br, HBr, H3PO2
Product: yellow flake single crystals
Description: Growing the single crystal through the slow cooling process from 100 °C to room temperature. 2.0 mmol of SnBr2 and 4.0 mmol of PEABr are dissolved in a mixture of HBr (3 mL) and H3PO2 (1 mL) after magnetic stirring and nitrogen flow for ∼5 min at 100 °C. The solution is slowly cooled from 100 °C to room temperature. The obtained yellow flake single crystals are washed using acetone and ethyl ether and then dried under reduced pressure.
Method: single-crystal X-ray diffraction
Description: A Rigaku XtaLAB Synergy-S diffractometer using a HyPix-6000HE Hybrid Photon Counting (HPC) detector and a dual Mo and Cu microfocus sealed X-ray source as well as a low-temperature Oxford Cryosystem 800 is utilized to collect single-crystal X-ray data.

Starting materials: SnBr2, hydrobromic acid, phenylethylamine, ethanol, DMF, CH3CN
Product: colorless crystals
Description: Hydrobromic acid solution (1.74 mL, 15.4 mmol) was added in 100 mL of ethanol. White organic salts were obtained after filtration under vacuum, then washed and dried. SnBr2 (2.0 mmol) was dissolved with PEABr (8.0 mmol) with 1 mL of DMF and 2 mL CH3CN. Colorless block crystals formed after the vial was left to stand for 3 days.
Method: Single crystal X-ray diffraction
Description: SCXRD data collected using a Rigaku XtaLAB Synergy-S diffractometer equipped wtih a HyPix-6000HE Hybrid Photon Counting detector.
