Hybrid organic-inorganic main-group metal halide compounds are the subject of intense research owing to their unique optoelectronic characteristics. In this work, we report the synthesis, structure, and electronic and optical properties of a family of hybrid tin (II) bromide compounds comprising guanidinium [G, C(NH)] and mixed cesium-guanidinium cations: GSnBr, CsGSnBr, and CsGSnBr. GSnBr has a one-dimensional structure that consists of chains of corner-sharing [SnBr] square pyramids and G cations situated in between the chains. Cs exhibits a pronounced structure-directing effect where a mixture of Cs and G cations forms mono- and bilayered two-dimensional perovskites: CsGSnBr and CsGSnBr. Furthermore, the flat shapes of the guanidinium cations induce anisotropic out-of-plane tilts of the [SnBr] octahedra in the CsGSnBr and CsGSnBr compounds. In GSnBr, the Sn lone pair is highly stereoactive and favors non-octahedral, that is, square pyramidal coordination of Sn(II). GSnBr exhibits bright broad-band emission from self-trapped excitonic states, owing to its soft lattice and electronic localization. This emission in GSnBr is characterized by a photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield of 2% at room temperature (RT; 75 ± 5% at 77 K) and a fast PL lifetime of 18 ns at room temperature.
