The structure of the title compound, [Mg(AlH₄)₂(C₄H₈O)₄], has been redetermined at 150 K. The Mg^II ion is hexacoordinated to four tetrahydrofuran (THF) ligands, and two AlH₄ anions through bridging H atoms. The Al—H distances are more precise compared to those previously determined. The molecule has twofold rotation symmetry.
