[2-(3,5-Dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl-κN2)-1,10-phenanthroline-κ2N,N′]bis(thiocyanato-κN)cadmium(II)

Abstract

In the title complex, [Cd(NCS)2(C17H14N4)], the CdII ion is in a distorted trigonal-bipyramidal CdN5 coordination geometry. In the crystal structure, there is a π–π stacking interaction involving a pyrazole ring and a symmetry-related pyridine ring with a centroid–centroid distance of 3.578 (3) Å.
