The low-temperature X-ray structure, and magnetic properties of (MePhenetNH2)2[CuBr4] (MePhenetNH2=N-methyl-2phenylethylammonium) (1) are reported. The compound was characterized using IR, combustion analysis, X-ray powder diffraction, single crystal X-ray diffraction, and temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility measurements. Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group C2/c. In the structure, the tetrabromidocuprate ions are packed into zigzag chains parallel to the c-axis which are stabilized by hydrogen bonds between the ammonium cations and bromide anions. Magnetic measurements (1.8-310 K) indicate weak antiferromagnetic interactions propagated via the two-halide exchange pathway through short Br…Br contacts. Fitting the data with the S = ½ uniform chain model gave J =-7.7(1) K with C = 0.403(1).
