The intrinsic moisture sensitivity of the hybrid perovskite methylammonium lead iodide (MAPI) calls for new synthetic strategies to enhance moisture resistance and, thus, long-term stability. Here, we combine two strategies: (i) transitioning from 3D to 2D hybrid perovskites by inserting larger A-site cations as spacers and (ii) using fluorinated linkers to enhance the hydrophobicity of the material—and identify two new hybrid perovskite-type compounds, (FC2H4NH3)2PbCl4 and (FC2H4NH3)PbBr3·DMF, carrying 2-fluoroethylammonium (FC2H4NH3)+ as a promising organic cation for the synthesis of moisture-resistant hybrid perovskites. (FC2H4NH3)2PbCl4 features a two-dimensional structure and pronounced long-term stability as confirmed by single-crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. The observed reversible phase transitions at 87 and 107 °C investigated with thermal analysis, temperature-dependent powder X-ray diffraction measurements, and 1H, 13C, and 207Pb solid-state NMR spectroscopy can be assigned to changes in...
