Abstract	The reaction of dimethyl­amine hydro­chloride, 18-crown-6 and ferric chloride in ethanol yields the title compound, (C2H8N)[FeCl4]·C12H24O6, which exhibits an unusual supramolecular structure. The protonated dimethyl­amine contains one NH2 + group, resulting in a 1:1 supra­molecular rotator–stator structure (CH3—NH2 +—CH3)(18-crown-6), through N—H⋯O hydrogen-bonding inter­actions between the ammonium group of the cation and the O atoms of the crown ether. In the crystal, all three components lie on a common crystallographic mirror plane normal to [010].
