Abstract

The structure of the title compound, (C5H7N5)2[SnCl6]Cl2·4H2O, can be described as alternating layers of C5H7N52+ and [SnCl6]2− ions along the b axis, the SnIV atom lying on a twofold axis. The chloride ions are located between the organic entities, forming hydrogen bonds with the N atoms and water molecules. Layers of adeninium cations and hexa­chloro­stannate anions are linked by anion–cation, cation–water and water–water hydrogen bonds. This three-dimensional complex network of hydrogen bonds ensures the cohesion of the ionic structure.
