Abstract Thiamine hydrochloride (vitamin B1) reacts with antimony trichloride in methanol to produce a crystalline compound which has been characterized as the salt 2[C12H18N4OS]·[Sb2Cl10] by X-ray crystallography. The compound crystallizes in the triclinic space group $$P\bar 1,a = 8.853(2)$$ ,b=11.029(2),c=12.234(2) Å, α=108.75(2), β=102.67(2), ψ=103.59(2)°,U=1041.52 Å3,D c=1.80 g cm−3,Z=1. The crystal structure consists of discrete [C12H18N4OS]2+ cations and chloro bridged [Cl4Sb(μ-Cl)2SbCl4]4- anions in 2:1 ratio, held together by hydrogen bonds and electrostatic forces.
