title: catena-Poly[(S)-2-methyl-piperazine-1,4-diium [[trichloridobismuthate(III)]-di-μ-chlorido]].
abstract: In the crystal structure of the title compound, {(C(5)H(14)N(2))[BiCl(5)]}(n), the Bi(III) cation is coordinated by six Cl(-) anions in a distorted octa-hedral geometry. Two Cl(-) anions bridge neighboring Bi(III) cations, forming a zigzag polymeric chain along the a axis. The discrete methylpiperazinediium cation adopts a normal chair conformation and is linked to the polymeric chains by N-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonding.
