Two new ferroelastic compounds, isopropyl ammonium chloroplatinate (C 3 H 7 NH 3 ) 2 PtCl 6 and isopropyl ammonium chlorostannate (C 3 H 7 NH 3 ) 2 SnCl 6 , studied at room temperature (23°C) with Laue, Weissenberg, powder X‐ray diffraction and optical second‐harmonic generation (SHG) techniques have probable space group P 2 1 / c ( Bbcm above 37°C and 40°C respectively). The crystals are so strongly pseudo‐orthorhombic ( Bbcm ) with prevalent twinning that the monoclinic character is not apparent in the X‐ray powder pattern. Lattice parameters for the pseudo‐orthorhombic cells are a = 11.589 (1), b = 19.024 (3), c = 7.237 (3) Å, for IPACP and a = 11.851 (7), b = 19.05 (1) and c = 7.227 (4) Å for IPACS.
