Abstract

The title compound crystallizes in the centrosymmetric triclinic space group Pl with Z = 4. The crystallographic asymmetric unit contains two independent cations; interatomic distances within these include P=O = 1.47(1) and 1.47(1)Å, P-C6H5 = 1.78(2)-1.81(1)Å and P-CH2CH2NMe+3 = 1.80(1) and 1.81(1)Å. The phosphine oxide moiety is involved in intermolecular hydrogen bonding (O···H-C, with O···H ≥ 2.42Å) and the iodide is involved in I···H-C contacts with I···H ≥ 3.10Å.
