Hydrogen Bonds in Bis(1H-benzimidazole-κN3)cadmium(II) Dibenzoate: Hirshfeld Surface Analysis and AIM Perspective

Abstract

The coordination complex bis(1H-benzimidazole-κN3)cadmium(II) dibenzoate has been synthesized and characterized by single crystal diffraction analysis. Cadmium center is six coordinated and formed a distorted octahedron coordinated geometry. The Hirshfeld analysis shows that in the dnorm-surface of the compound, there are dark red spots near the hydrogen-bonds acceptor and donor atoms, while intermolecular interactions result in faint-red spots. The AIM analysis was performed, there exist a BCP in each N(C)–H∙∙∙O hydrogen bond, the bond paths also can be seen, the |V(b)|/G(b) 0, the interaction is indicative of being a closed shell. The TG results are consistent with the X-ray diffraction structure
