metal-organic compounds
The rigid organic linkers N-(4-bromophenylsulfonyl)dithiocarbimate(2−) and N-(4-iodophenylsulfonyl)dithiocarbimate(2−) crystallize with two potassium cations and two water molecules in their asymmetric units, forming the title coordination polymers, [K2(C7H4BrNO2S3)(H2O)2]n and [K2(C7H4INO2S3)(H2O)2]n. The anions and the water molecules link the potassium cations into broad two-dimensional networks, which are further linked by Khalide interactions.
