Bis{2-[4-(methylsulfanyl)phenyl]-1H-benzimidazol-3-ium} tetrabromidocadmate(II) ethanol monosolvate
Abstract
In the anion of the title compound, (C14H13N2S)2[CdBr4]·C2H5OH, the CdII atom is in a distorted tetrahedral environment and one of the Br atoms is disordered over three sites with site-occupancy factors of 0.828 (5), 0.106 (3) and 0.068 (4). In the crystal, intermolecular N—H...O, C—H...O and N—H...Br interactions result in a two-dimensional polymeric network extending parallel to (010).
