Bis(3-hy-droxy-methyl-anilinium) hexa-chloridostannate(IV).

In the title compound, (C(7)H(10)NO)(2)[SnCl(6)], the Sn(IV) atom, located on an inversion center, exists in an octa-hedral coordination environment. The crystal structure exhibits alternating organic and inorganic layers parallel to ([Formula: see text]01). The cations and anions are linked via inter-molecular N-H⋯O, N-H⋯Cl and O-H⋯Cl hydrogen bonds. Additional stabilization is provided by π-π stacking inter-actions between the benzene rings of the cations [centroid-centroid distances = 3.6962 (15) and 3.9340 (15) Å].
