Abstract

In the title compound, [SbCl(2)(C(4)H(8)N(2)S)(2)]Cl, the coordination around the Sb atom can be described as distorted pseudo-octahedral. Both rings of the trimethylenethiourea ligands [alternatively 3,4,5,6-tetrahydropyrimidine-2(1H)-thione] adopt an envelope conformation. The molecules are connected into dimers in the ab plane by two intermolecular hydrogen bonds. The dimers are arranged into infinite one-dimensional chains along the a axis as a result of the Cl(-) ions forming intermolecular hydrogen bonds with three NH groups.
