From chemfig documentation, page 8. It seems like \setchemfig is not defined:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{textcomp}
\usepackage[italian]{babel}
\usepackage{chemfig}

\begin{document}
    \setchemfig{atom sep=50pt}
    \chemfig{A-B}
\end{document}

 ! Undefined control sequence.
l.9 \setchemfig {atom sep=50pt} The control sequence at the end of the top line of your error message was
never \def'ed. If you have misspelled it (e.g., `\hobx'), type `I' and
the correct spelling (e.g., `I\hbox'). Otherwise just continue, and
I'll forget about whatever was undefined.

I don't get any error with the code. – dexteritas May 10 '18 at 10:35
As stated in the documentation, \setchemfig was introdued with version 1.3. You will recieve the above described error if you try to use this command with an older version of the chemfig package. – leandriis May 10 '18 at 10:38
Well: how can I update my chemfig package? – user3204810 May 10 '18 at 10:39
Information on how to update your tex distribution can be found here: How do I update my TeX distribution? – leandriis May 10 '18 at 10:42
Check your distribution (MiKTeX or TeXLive for example). They have pretty straight forward update mechanisms. – Dr. Manuel Kuehner May 10 '18 at 10:42

If you definitely have to stick to an older version of chemfig, you can also use the matching command \setatomsep{50pt} that is obsolete with newer versions. – leandriis May 10 '18 at 10:43
