catena-Poly[[bis(nitrato-κO)cadmium]bis[μ-1,3-bis[(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene-κ2N4:N4′]]

Abstract

In the title compound, [Cd(NO3)2(C12H12N6)2]n, the CdII cation is located on an inversion center and is six-coordinated by four N atoms from four 1,3-bis[(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)methyl]benzene (L) ligands and two O atoms from two nitrate anions in a slightly distorted octahedral geometry. The ligands link different CdII ions into a ribbon-like structure along [001]. Two O atoms of the nitrate anion are disordered over two sets of sites with site occupancies of 0.575 (8) and 0.425 (8).
