Abstract: | In the title compound, 4‐(dimethylamino)pyridine is protonated on the pyridine N atom. The N(CH3)2 moiety is twisted 4.4 (2)° from the pyridine‐ring plane. The octahedral SnCl6]2? anion is hydrogen bonded via trans‐Cl atoms to pyridinium N atoms from two cations forming (C7H11N2)2SnCl6] structural units. |
