Abstract: In the title compound, [SnCl₄(C₃H₇N)₂], the coordination geometry around the Sn atom is octahedral, with the two N atoms of dimethylamine in the axial sites. The Sn atom is at the center of the square formed by four Cl atoms. The title molecule lies on a crystallographic center of symmetry. The crystal structure has a moderate N-HCl hydrogen bond.
